English
The conception of the F & C 44 class of yachts began in the cockpit of Recluta 111 during the Fastnet race of 1973 when she was the top scorer in the Admirals Cup series that year. The designer German Frers was aboard monitoring the performance of his successful creation. Frers had by this time left Sparkman and Stephens and set up on his own in Buenos Aries. His father commissioned the first of a revised version – a gentleman’s yacht of high quality designed with the concept of providing luxury performance cruising. The artistry of the design led the ‘Frers & Cibils’ yard in Buenos Aires to commence production and about fifty of the class were completed between 1979-83
This is a Modern Classic Keel/CB Ketch.. Designed by the famous German Frers Jr., this is a true Gentleman's Yacht for elegant cruising or perhaps a Bermuda Race.
There have been many upgrades to include: Solid Teak Decks, a 53 HP Yanmar Diesel, New Chainplates and a Rebuilt Rudder.
