Certified CE “Germanischer Lloyd” Category A Ocean, it is fully equipped for both long-distance cruising and competitive sailing.

Among its notable features, the yacht is fitted with a race keel (2.54m draft), Harken furling system, Harken German mainsheet system, and rod rigging, providing excellent handling and optimal sail trim.

**This boat lies in Italy and as such, its sale is subject to Italian customs and practices on yachts brokerage, which state that the agency commission of 10% is paid in half between the seller and the buyer. The sale price published on this site is therefore calibrated so that the seller pays to the broker only 5% and does not include the other 5%, which must be paid directly by the buyer to the broker.
