This Wayfarer 44 is a sailing beauty. Her hull was laid in 1958 and was built by owner Dr. Bob Williams and his very close friend Herald E Graham. Having solved their basic problem with the development of CUBEX, the next step was to find the right marine architect. Mr. C. William Lapworth was finally chosen because of his outstanding record of winning boats and the fine sailing characteristics of all his designs. Miss Randi was to be no exception. 

This Vessel was launched in 1962 and was active in all Southern California races including the San Diego to Catalina Race of 1962. She completed the Tans Pac LA to Hawaii in 1965. Her racing had just began in 1966, completing the San Diego to Mazatlan Race. In 1973, 1974 and 1975 she completed the 650 mile Guadalupe Island Race and in addition sailed in 23 Newport to Ensenada Races. She retired from active racing in 1985.
