Scamp

Scamp

 

Scamp is new to the Hobart race, having launched in 2014. This is the second boat owned by Angela and Mike Mollison to bear the name Scamp. It is derived from the Initials of the first names of the Mollison family, appealing to the sense of fun and humour of the owners and crew. This version has mostly been racing on Moreton Bay, with a Beneteau Regatta, Surf to City, Brisbane to Gladstone and Brisbane to Keppel all ticked off the list. This year the crew has a busy schedule since deciding to enter the Rolex Sydney Hobart, and much of the steep part of the learning curve has been achieved, with Scamp beginning to finish closer to the leaders.
