Broker's Comments
This boat's past is rich in history and she has broken several records and includes a round the world passage and three single-handed crossings of the Atlantic
Built in New Zealand by the renowned Whiting Brothers she is a very substantial boat built with her purpose in mind.
She has had long spells ashore including six years in the USA and the last ten years in the UK where she has been fully and sympathetically refurbished to a high standard by her current owner to represent her former glory
This boat is ready to go and is a great opportunity for the next owner to go offshore and cruise in this historic and record setting boat
These boat details are subject to contract.
