Famous old Lake Mac sailor Alby Burgin was her first owner, and she went far too quickly when he was sailing her.

Thanks, it still is pretty slippery, but used more for live onboard cruising east coast qld. Old sail number was 5202. On the top right of transom it looks like M2 in the gel coat, does that mean it's the second one built?

M2 = Lake Macquarie Yacht Club #2. Obviously it was a re-used number that Alby, as an honoured member and winner of 1 or 2 Hobarts, managed to grab.
