Description

An incredibly solidly built racing boat with lovely lines, spacious flush decks and a large sugar scoop off the stern. She’s famous for circumnavigating the globe 3 times. She has both the speed of a racer, achieving speeds of 20 knts + and the space, comfort and intrinsic safety of a cruiser. She was hauled out in September 2006 and had a new propeller shaft, cutlass bearing and p. bracket installed. She has had a complete hull re-spray and antifouling. Her earlier built sister ship is currently being used by the South African Navy. Altogether a gorgeous boat with an incredible reputation.
