Profile
Launched in 1974, technical problems have clouded her form. Second home in last year's Hobart. Took line honours Sydney–Brisbane and Brisbane–Gladstone races, 5th across the line in Transpac: lost rudder in Royal Hawaiian Cup. Pundits respect her windward ability and in these conditions is expected to give Kialoa III and Windward Passage competition for line honours.
