From 1980, but not launched until 1982, this white-hulled C&C designed Baltic 39 benefits from recent upgrades she is now a turn-key solution for those looking for a great example of this iconic Finnish-built fast cruiser.
FURTHER BROKER’S COMMENTS:
The Baltic 39 was a medium displacement performance design aiming at general all-round sailing with a slightly greater emphasis on upwind characteristics than our earlier Baltic Yachts models. The design incorporated a high ballast ration and a high aspect ratio fin keel. The accommodation layout of the Baltic 39 was generous for a boat of that size incorporating a full owner's cabin aft with complete privacy.
The Baltic 39 was one of the first serial production yachts that were designed and performance evaluated using computer programs. Full VPP studies were executed resulting in both polar plots and performance in numbers. In addition to producing a good basis for design optimizations, the result from the computer studies also gave racing clients polars and performance numbers representing valuable targets for racing.
DISCIPLINE is a 1980 hull nr. 55 of 74 units built of this successful Baltic Yachts with black anodised rig and teak decks. She now offers fantastic opportunity to become part of the iconic and exclusive Baltic Yachts family for a fraction of the cost associated with bringing up yacht of this type to this condition and specification.
