2012 Australia Constellation
The latest win has been achieved by Michael Finn in his S&S 34, Constellation. Mike won The Fremantle to Busselton Iberia Race in 2011 with an impressive margin. Constellation won her IRC division 2 by 33 minutes plus overall IRC 1 & 2 divisions by 3 minutes, a terrific performance.
Michael Finn’s new born S&S 34 is a most interesting and inspiring development which sees the original design executed in modern materials. You can read the interesting story on the Australian S&S 34 Association web site.
