In the Golden Age of Offshore Racing
YDRA is alive and well in Germany. She won the 1973 One Ton Cup skippered by the great Italian Rear Admiral, Agostino Straulino, and crewed by her owner, Marina Bulgari Spaccarelli. YDRA also won the 1973 Giraglia. Bravo!
“The birth of Dick Carter Yacht Designer has a fairy tale quality to it. Winning the world’s most renowned ocean race, the Fastnet, with your first design, RABBIT. Then, being commissioned, even before that win, to create a One Tonner, TINA, and winning the One Ton Cup. With your second commission, OPTIMIST, winning the One Ton Cup again. Twice.”
Thank you Julien Everitt and Seahorse!
