Profile

The impressive racing record of this Carter half tonner includes 2nd place overall (behind Screw Loose) in the 1979 Hobart and a win in Division D in last year's race. Wheel Barrow and Screw Loose will again be top prospects for division honours – and overall honours, if it is a small boat race this year. But they will be hard pressed to beat Australia's fastest half tonner, Beach Inspector.
