International Dragon (1991) for sale in Cowes, United Kingdom

Summary

Up for sale on TheYachtMarket.com is an exceptional International Dragon sailboat, located in Cowes, United Kingdom. This breathtaking vessel, 'Cavailer', was crafted by Lallows of Cowes in 1991 using a unique mahogany double diagonal cold moulded construction, combining the aesthetic beauty of varnished hulls with the robust durability of grp. Originally commissioned by a racing enthusiast from France, the boat saw regular action till the late 90s before being meticulously preserved until her rediscovery and subsequent transportation to Petticrows. Here, a comprehensive refurbishment was executed, leaving no stone unturned. Decked with resplendent mahogany topsides, treated with hard racing antifoul, she was further equipped with new Harken hardware to match Petticrows' standards. Cavailer was in action intermittently until 2015 and has recently been recommissioned for racing in 2022.

A 2007 Harbeck trailer, serviced in 2022, ensures easy transportation. To maintain her polished look, important covers have been cleaned and reproofed in 2022, making Cavailer a highly sought-after luxury vessel for the discerning sailor. Please note, for high-level racing, the purchase of new race sails would be recommended. An array of extra features such as two paddles, an anchor, chain, warp and more are included in the sale.

About this International Dragon

English

Cavailer was built in 1991 by Lallows of Cowes using a mahogany double diagonal cold moulded construction, this gives you the best of both worlds if you are a lover of varnished hulls but want the strength of grp.

Originally built for a French owner who raced her until the late 90s when she was carefully laid up until the current owner found her in France and had her transported to Petticrows, where a wonderful refurbishment was undertaken.

During the refit nothing was left unturned, full strip and varnish of her beautiful mahogany topsides, hard racing antifoul polished onto the bottom, new harken hardware speced to Petticrows standard at the time, to finish the refit a new Harbeck trailer and every cover and spare that was needed to race at a high level.

She raced on and off up until 2015 when she was again laid up until 2022 when she was re commissioned for racing.
