The Yachts

Tina of Melbourne

 

This is "Tina's" second Hobart race and her previous position is no indication of her potential.  Owner Barry Scott has recruited a highly experienced crew with 24 Hobart races between them and has proceeded to win every major trophy in Victorian yachting.  She was designed by Olim Stephens to One Ton Cup rating and is fitted with alloy spars and rod rigging.  She should easily better her eleventh place in last year's race.
