Profile
Zeus II was launched in 1979 and has competed in numerous ocean races including 11 Sydney to Hobart, 3 Montague Island and Sydney to Mooloolaba Race. One of the smallest yachts in the fleet, this yacht proved that size is no handicap when she won the 1981 Sydney to Hobart Race. Other wins include the 1980 Janzoon Trophy, the 1990 Cabbage Tree Island Race and both the '94 and '95 Morna Cup races. Owner/skipper Jim Dunstan, recently elected Commodore of the Royal Sydney Yacht Squadron, will be clocking up his 21st Sydney to Hobart Race this year.
