Fidelis is a boat with a stellar and sound provenance. Her story is well documented through several books and many articles. Her sparkling race record began in New Zealand, and then as the line honours winner of the Sydney to Hobart yacht race in 1966. The race winning performance continues to this day with harbour sailing, another five completed S2H races, many trips to Lord Howe Island, and races to the Solomon Islands, Tasmania, Queensland and NZ. Although her race record is important she is a very stable and safe ocean sailing yacht. She remains a "Greyhound" but is equally at home in cruising mode and is an easily handled vessel!

Cruising sailors tend to prefer things like swimming from their boat; Racing sailors prefer the water on top of their boat instead; They will spend as much money on sails as their boat is worth; They will sail so close together you could jump to the next boat; They will remove their dodger so they can fully enjoy all that water on top of their boat; They will crawl onto a pitching foredeck to lash down a sail because they don’t have a furler; They will climb onto the boom to install a reef line so they don’t have to slow the boat down; They will fly a spinnaker in 20 knots of wind or more; They won’t even bother taking down their own spinnaker, and will just let God do it; And they will do all of this whether it’s day or night, regardless of whether they can see or not; All for getting their boat’s name engraved on some stupid trophy, and getting some yellow flags to boast about their accomplishments, and for some unforgettable moments with friends - priceless!!!
