Moonbird
"Moonbird", the first of the Swanson 36 class, has sailed most impressively in the two seasons she has been racing. She has dominated Division II and invariably finds herself up amongst the Division I yachts. The big prize in the Hobart Race has eluded Norm Brooker despite several concerted attempts but this year "Moonbird" is really going and could well pull it off.
