Meet Mistral II
our newest vessel
Mistral II is an important piece of Australia's maritime history, having competed in the first five Sydney to Hobart Yacht Races, beginning in 1945.
She was donated to the Windeward Bound Foundation Ltd by the family of the late Ron Burton to be used as a training "tool" for young Australians.
Thanks to State Government support, Mistral II is currently being restored by an energetic group of young people who are learning skills and receiving training to help them enter the workforce.
