Profile
Irish property developer Gerard O'Rourke used this year’s Hamilton Island Race Week as a pre-Hobart shakedown for his brand new boat and finished an impressive 5th overall in IRC. Like its sistership Living Doll, O'Rourke has taken a Farr designed hull and added a canting keel to optimise the boat for IRC racing. Could do well in this race if conditions suit the mid-fleet boats.
