Designed for both cruising and racing,
this magnificent yacht reflects the style
and quality of a golden age of yachting.
This, coupled with a modern underwater
body and rig, creates a yacht which is as
easy to handle as any modern yacht on
the market today.
She will be admired and envied in any
marina or anchorage and with her
performance rig and sails will show many
of her closest rivals a clean pair of heels.
