Launched under the name Salperton, this yacht was originally built for a European customer. As is often the case, after enjoying the boat the first year, he sold it to another owner the second, and after a while it passed to a third owner, who actively charters the boat. She has a very high level of comfort and excellent seakeeping ability with a top speed of 15 knots and over. Her layout is unusual for a sailing yacht with the cockpit, saloon, dining room and deckhouse all on one level. This arrangement is quite rare, but the New Zealanders have learned to implement it elegantly and with no loss of space onboard. The owner of the yacht is proud of her and regularly invests a lot of money into her repair and re-equipment, he also takes care of his guests: there is a professional masseuse on board, and the cook regularly goes to learn more and more national cuisines.
