Profile
This Davidson two tonner was formerly the crack Sweet Caroline. She was in the 1980 victorious Clipper Cup team and won the Sydney Suva the same year. While she was always regarded as one of the Hobart favourites her performance in this race has been quite ordinary with 50th, retired, 66th and 68th. While now outdated she has this time another experienced crew who could easily give her by far her best race to date.
