Profile
Condor of Bermuda and Bob Bell making a return after an absence of some years. Condor has had a look total refit and has won a lot of major races during her career. The one memorable for Australia was her Sydney Hobart line honours win in '82 beating Apollo by just seven seconds. This sloop also took line honours in the nasty '79 Fastnet Race. Bell has put a lot into yachting and previously owned both maxi Condors, taking numerous prizes with both.
