Salona

 

A new boat designed by J & J Yacht Design and built by AD Boats, Salona made her debut in the 2006 Rolex Sydney Hobart but unfortunately didn’t make the finish.  Phillip King has an extensive and impressive sailing record including winning Division A of the 1984 Sydney Hobart, the Adelaide to Robe Race in 1986, the Adelaide to King Island Race in 1989 and being South Australian Offshore Champion in 1989. 

This will be Salona’s third foray into northern racing after contesting the Audi Sydney Southport 2007 and Audi Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race 2007.
