Consolidated Marine 12 Meter America's Cup Yacht
This is a rare opportunity to own "Steak & Kidney," the recently refitted 1986 12M KA-14, America's Cup Challenger designed by Peter Cole and built by Consolidated Marine. She raced as a defender candidate for Australia in 1987. This classic has been operating as a 25 passenger charter vessel, match racing against 1977 challenger, "Australia," (also for sale), and other America Cup classic 12M yachts for half-day trips of racing or sightseeing. In 2004 she was refitted for charter and repainted to original colors of white and pale blue.
If you are looking to own a piece of yachting history, or start up a day-charter business in a year-round sailng venue, then this retired racing yacht has the potential to generate positive cash flow and an excellent income. Ideally suited for a Captain & Mate, owner-operated and supplemented with part-time crew. Call for more details.
