Bacardi

 

Formerly known as Spotlight, this Peterson 44 was built in 1978.  She has sailed in five Hobarts with her best being 27th in 1983.  She took a first in the Melbourne-Hobart West Coaster which shows her ability to sail very well.  Owned by a syndicate of sailors from Sandringham Yacht Club, she will be raced very keenly.
