AI-generated summary

The Clasico Cuter Crucero Regata 12m C R, currently located in Barcelona, Spain, is a distinguished sailing yacht with an overall length of 17.85 metres and a beam of 3.80 metres, originally manufactured in 1954. Commissioned by Norwegian industrialist Ragnar Appelgren, the yacht was designed by Bjarne Aas in the Cruiser Regatta class and built as the yard's largest ship in Fredrikstad.

The yacht has a rich history of competitive success, including victories in prestigious regattas such as the King's Cup and Puig Vela Clàssica, and it is now in excellent structural condition following a comprehensive restoration in 2013. Its dual-purpose design seamlessly accommodates both competitive racing and leisurely Mediterranean cruising.

Ragnar Appelgren (1909-1993) was a Norwegian cosmetics industrialist and passionate sailor. In 1953 he commissioned a large sailing yacht from Bjarne Aas. It was the largest boat Aas had ever designed. It was a 12-metre yacht of the then recent Cruiser Regatta class (Int. C-R), which was inspired by the Metric Formula (IR), but with dimensions that were more geared to offshore sailing (greater freeboard, deeper draft, more displacement, etc.). From the metric boats, the long overhangs were maintained, which give the CR boats an elegance that stands out among all the classics. The new ship was built in Fredrikstad (near the Swedish border) and was the largest ship built by the yard, which belonged to Aas itself, up to that date. Appelgren sailed Ingeborg in the North Sea for three years until 1957, winning many races and doing family cruises. After that date, he wanted to establish his base in Palma de Mallorca, but after another three years, in 1960, he sold the Ingeborg to Manuel Giró Minguella, a Spanish industrialist, famous for being the owner of the Ossa motorbike brand. Manuel Giró renamed her Yanira, one of the 50 Nereids, Mediterranean nymphs who, according to the ancient Greeks, looked after sailors, and enjoyed her for ten years until he sold her to a syndicate of 10 friends. Later, this fast sailing ship was owned by the families of Luis Gil de Biedma and Federico García Planas, until the latter became the sole owner in 1983. In 2013, the boat changed ownership again and its new owner underwent an extensive restoration cycle, with new mast and sails, new caulking and painting of the hull, refit of the chainplates and replacement of some planks and frames, as well as complete renovation of the deck. Since then the Yanira has participated in numerous regattas with impressive results (including seven King's Cups - six in a row, several times champion in the Puig Vela Clàssica; several victories in Les Voiles de Saint Tropez and even in the General Cruiser IR of the Alfonso XIII Barcelona-Menorca trophy which she won in 2000 and 2005 against modern boats). At the same time, her owner has enjoyed magnificent cruising trips with his family, sailing all over the Mediterranean. We can therefore affirm that the Yanira perfectly fulfils the two programmes that her design formula had envisaged and is in perfect structural condition to continue to do so with a new owner.
