General Description
Every once in a while a very special yacht listing comes available.
Tara is just one of those rare occasions. She was built as a custom racer for John "Don"
McNamara and designed by Bill Luders.
Don McNamara was a bronze Olympian in 5.5 meters, co-captained the 12 meter "Nefertitti", and campaigned "Tara" in the SORC. He knew what he wanted in a racing boat.
