In that time she has been heavily raced and maintained around the Auckland and the North Island coastline, with her latest result being 1st PHRF at Bay of Islands Sailing Week 2024. In 2014 she had a complete new rig and spar installed, as well as the with the new Mark2 Jason Ker designed keel with weight transferred to the now 3.2m deep bulb.
