Profile

Launched June 2009, this Elliot design 44CR has shown great potential with some podium finishes that include: second in the IRC Range Series Port Phillip and first IRC in the 2011 and 2009 Melbourne to Hobart Eastcoaster. Veloce took out a somewhat rare line and handicap double in Hobart’s iconic yachting event, the King of the Derwent, in 2011. In fact, she is the first Victorian yacht to win since Skandia Wild Thing won the double in 2004.
