Profile

One of the Swarbrick built S & S 34’s that were very popular and successful ocean racers in the late 60’s, early 70’s, and made famous when British Prime Minister Ted Heath won the 1969 Sydney to Hobart race in Morning Cloud. A fine sea boat, S & S 34’s are always well placed amongst the traditional types, and this is one of the more successful competitors in recent years.
