Profile
Alan Bond's Apollo III has undergone some modifications since failing in Admiral's Cup selection trials earlier this year, modifications which have lowered her rating by nearly half a foot. At time of writing she had not had any serious competition since then, but Bond's Hobart boats are always well crewed and well sailed, so she will be one of the boats to beat.
