Overview

FEARLESS, one of the venerable Baltic 55 sloops that made such a mark on sailing in the 1980s is back on the market with much improved refinements and ready to sail and race to near and far oceans.


Her owner has dramatically improved her and with her David Pedrick keel, offering spirited performance while significantly improving her stability, she is fast, stable, safe, seaworthy and modern. Note sidebar: the keels design puts more weight lower in the keel to increase her righting moment, making her a happier sailing boat and her crew equally joyous.


3rd Place in Class 9 2018 Bermuda Race.
