Profile

This Kaufman designed one-tonner was launched late in 1976 and was raced by Chris Bouzaid in the 1977 National One Ton Championships where she finished 2nd. She has not figured highly in Sydney Hobart Races for various reasons but has plenty of potential. Little is known of her current form, but her near sister Pryority has a good record.

Member of the TAS Southern Cross Cup team.
