Profile

One of a pair of Peterson one tonners constructed in Newcastle, Deception had a very successful 1978/79 season, and although she changed owners this year she has continued her winning ways. Now raced by John Bleakley, Deception will be one of the favourites amongst the hotly contested One Ton class.

Member of the NSW Southern Cross Cup team.
