Cruiser racer.
Short history
The yacht was built in Italy via the Dutch dealer Messink Yachts to racing specification. She came out about 300kg lighter than the normal racing version. At that time the boat had a carbon mast. She was very successful and won multiple races and National championships.
The second owner used the boat mainly for long offshore cruising, until the boat got damaged and lost her mast in the Caribbean (2014). A family member and present owner of the second owner took ownership of the boat and refitted the hull, placed a new aluminium mast and sails. Hereafter she was used for racing and cruising again. The boat sailed her last race in 2019, which was a double handed Fastnet race.
