Overview

A very unique Sou’wester -- the last of only five built. DARK STAR has been constantly upgraded with significant refits in 1996, 2006 and 2013. All exterior teak was stripped and refinished in 2015.

The Tripp design is known for its classic beauty and excellent sailing capabilities. DARK STAR, maintained in excellent condition, won Division H of the 2015 Figawi Regatta (Hyannis to Nantucket) in strong wind conditions.

She has a beautifully redesigned interior with reconfigured master stateroom, two heads, a galley and main salon. All systems have been restored and/or upgraded. She is a very special yacht with an exceptional pedigree, available for a fraction of the cost of replacement. A family heirloom destined to please for generations, she is well worth inspecting.
