Impressive downwind in 5 knots.
How will it cope with a Bass Strait southerly buster?

Looks like Bob Oatley may have a fight on his hands this year....that thing's built like a 100ft B14

An 18ft skiff after jacking up a tonne of steroids! They'll eat Wild Oats with reaching conditions. Made like a Vendee Globe yacht for high speed following seas with lots of "Rail Meat" to sail her!
On the other hand, if they cop a strong Southerly..... a bit of Tupperware will probably snap sending everyone back the CYC sobbing into their beer
