Jamarella - Farr One Tonner (Part 2)

 This post features some photographs by Guy Gurney featuring the Farr-designed One Tonner Jamarella (UK) during the 1987 Admiral's Cup, and in close quarters racing amongst other yachts in this closely fought series. Jamarella finished as second placed yacht overall, behind New Zealand's Propaganda, and an earlier article on Jamarella can be seen here.
