A typical summer weather pattern in Perth for the Bunbury and Return Ocean Race

The Bunbury and Return Ocean Race came about in 1948 when a few adventurous sailors from the Royal Freshwater Bay Yacht Club decided to have a race from Fremantle to Bunbury. Thereafter it became an annual return race and is still to this day one of the favourite events on the Ocean Racing WA calendar. The 170 nautical mile course requires teams to settle into an offshore routine and consider their strategy for the expected weather conditions over the duration of the race.

At the time the brief to designer Olin Stephens was to match the dominance of Syd Fischer’s Ragamuffin on the water, but no expense was to be spared to fit her out with comfort and opulence. Salacia II was to be faster and prettier. They became fierce competitors in events such as the Sydney to Hobart but raced alongside each other as teammates in the Admiral’s Cup.
