The Yachts

Weatherly

 

This steel version of "Freya" is making her second trip to Hobart.  She has bowed to convention in retaining her wooden mast and boom but is loaded with experience with the crew totalling 23 Hobart races between them.  John Gilliam has under his command the well-known Jock Muir as sailing master.
