Profile

This former Admiral’s Cup team yacht of 1983 finished second in the Sydney to Hobart race of the same year, when owned by Peter Kurts. The Curries notched up a seventh in 1985. This past year, they have sailed the Dubois One Tonner north in the Sydney to Gold Coast race and onto Hamilton Island. One of the six or so yachts seeking a berth in the Victorian team for the AWA Southern Cross Cup, OMDF is still a most competitive boat.
