Broker's Comments
See "more photos" to view 54 internal and external photos of this vessel.
The French certainly enjoy their sailing and I would too, on a yacht like this.
The very sprightly but aging owner had this yacht designed and built to his own demanding spec after 30 + years of cruiser racing experience. The quality of thought and materials that have put together this "piece de resistance" of a racer cruiser is exceptional.
She bristles with B&G equipment, Harken deck gear Profurl furlers. Gori 3 blade folding props.
Twin rudders and lifting keel to take the ground, .
The strong rig, swept back spreaders boulstered with running back stays for heavy upwind work cries out " Sail me"
And below deck that attention to detail, light, airy excellent galley and chart table.
It's those little touches you will sit and think to yourself "that's a bloody good idea".
That makes this boat the one I found so difficult to walk away from!
Designed built and layed out to be effortlessly sailed fast a no compromise wallet brought this dream of a boat to life.
Many small touches only a true sailor would have thought about.
