It has won the Centomiglia, the Blue Ribbon Race on Lake Geneva, the Bol’dor and achieved second place at Europe Challenge. Its last victory was in 1996 at the RUNDUM (the Blue Ribbon Race on Lake Boden). Seeing the above mentioned results, it’s obviously not a brand new boat.

All equipment is in 'like: new' or 'very good' condition. Boat won Summer Series racing at Stage Harbor Yacht Club in 1964, the only year it was raced. It has not been modified from its original condition and therefore is ideally suited to being customized for racing. Must be seen to be appreciated. Compare to new Day Sailer 1 built by Cape Cod Shipbuilding for $15,000.
