48' De Haviland Aluminium Sailing Yacht (1975/95)
Details & Price
REF. No. 63539
Originally
built in 1975 of aluminium, on similar lines of Bernard
Moitissiers world girdling yacht, JOSHUA. She was sailed from Europe and out
to the Pacific by her owners and a young family of two boys. After which she
made a further trans Atlantic round trip and eventually in 1995, she
returned to an Italian yard for a rebuild on a "no expense spared" basis.
She had her rig changed from schooner to sloop/cutter, which included an all
state of the art Reckman rig and a suit of Ratsey & Lapthorn sails. A new
engine and a very comfortable deckhouse was built. She is a very
powerful high-speed bluewater cruiser.
She is extremely easy to sail and VERY FAST - the perfect world cruiser! Her accommodation inside is very well appointed and sleeps 6-8 people very comfortably. All systems are recent with a new water maker membrane, new upholstery, and completely new electronics from Sept. 2005.
An excellent fast cruiser with a large inventory of sails with one circumnavigation to her credit.
Full Specification on request.
