Profile

Zeus II  was launched in 1979 and has competed in numerous ocean races including 12 Sydney to Hobart's, three  Montague Island, Sydney Mooloolaba and Sydney Gold Coast races. One of the smallest yachts in the fleet, this yacht proved that size is no handicap when she won the '81 Sydney to Hobart race. Other wins include the 1980 Janzoon Trophy,  the 1990 Cabbage Tree Island race and both in 1994 and 1995 Morna Cup races. Owner skipper Jim Dunstan, Commodore of the Royal Sydney Yacht Squadron, will be clocking up his 22nd Sydney to Hobart race.
