The Currawong 30 is a seminal Australian-designed Half Tonner that occupies a prestigious niche in the history of ocean racing. Designed in the early 1970s by Professor Peter Joubert—a distinguished engineer and academic—the vessel was conceived as a rugged, sea-kindly yacht capable of enduring the grueling conditions of the Tasman Sea. Construction was primarily handled by Geoff Baker of Seaway Yachts and later by Lloyd Northam, who maintained the design’s reputation for robust glasswork and structural integrity. The design’s permanence in the nautical canon was cemented when the Currawong 30 Zeus II won the 1981 Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race on corrected time, a feat documented by the Australian National Maritime Museum.
