Exclusively For Sale with DBY Boat Sales, this strong bluewater sailboat will take you safely and comfortably anywhere. The family of 3 have just sailed into Australia after a multi year bluewater crossing from Sweden. With almost half the weight in the keel and a large sail area it performs very well both in strong and light winds.
Having just sailed to Australia from Sweden, she is equipped to continue travelling anywhere you like. Good sails, solent rig set up for a variety of wind strengths and angles, made for blue water cruising, together with a Hydrovane windvane and a strong Raymarine autopilot will take care of the sailing. Hefty solar panels and lithium batteries are used to run all systems including the watermaker and the other electronics on board for a comfortable and safe voyage. The boat features simple systems and avoids unnecessarily complicated electronics.
