Comment from RB Sailing blog "Locura was
renamed Dawn Patrol by the time of the 1984 SORC, after her new owner
the Dawn Patrol Syndicate. She finished sixth in Class C, and 33rd overall.
Changes to the IOR around this time sought to check the reliance of yachts such
as Locura on crew weight - she had been sailed with as many as 15
such was her sensitivity to crew weight. Off the wind in light air, four of
the crew would troop forward to the forestay to lift her full after sections.
The new rule limited crew to the formula 0.3R - 4, giving Locura a
maximum number of ten."

Comment from RB Sailing blog "The yacht was later renamed Barrister III and painted red. She continued to enjoy success at various regattas around the east coast. However, in early 1999 Barrister III fell off its jack and onto her side, breaking stringers and puncturing the hull."
