What Mercedes III can do when the going gets tough on Port Phillip

Frances slipping away

(Reflections to Max Merritt)
The probability of our signature

classic, Frances, leaving Port Phillip

is increasing

Her leaving will put to bed the
opportunity for the restoration of

world class metre racing on Port
Phillip featuring Frances, Vanessa,

the Acrospire’s and 30 Squares.

The owner of Frances desperately wants her to stay on Port Phillip.
Taking on Frances is a never to be repeated opportunity for local crews

to be developed for competing on the world stage of metre boat racing.

Once, twice, and for the third time, SOLD is not want we want to hear.
Her market details are with your handicapper.
