Previously based in Sydney for many years, her very experienced and fussy owners did a Sydney to Lord Howe race and cruised to the Whitsundays three times as well as lived aboard in Pittwater before selling her to Kiwi owners who had thousands of sea miles under their feet and were equally meticulous with maintenance. We sold her for her Kiwi owners to her present owner who has primarily used Sundowner in Moreton Bay.
