Ronita

Ronita

 

One of the famous Alan Payne Tasman Seabird class, "Ronita" is now a veteran of the Hobart race.  Owned by an ex-Cruising Yacht Club Commodore, she has always been well sailed with determination - although an older yacht, she performs very well in heavy weather and if these conditions prevail then she should be well up in the final list of placings.
