A 1979 custom gaff-rigged schooner, this 70-foot yacht was built as a replica of John Alden's Malabar X design. The boat carries a substantial sailing resume that includes two circumnavigations, seventeen transatlantic passages, and multiple regatta victories. The hull measures 14.4 feet in beam with a draft of 2.7 meters, and the rig carries eleven sails for varied weather conditions.
The layout below deck accommodates four cabins and two heads, with thoughtful interior finishes and generous stowage throughout. A single Perkins Sabre diesel engine provides auxiliary power.
The yacht underwent major refurbishment in 2002, which included replacement of the engine, electrical systems, and plumbing. More recent updates in 2022 added new Raymarine electronics, gel batteries, running rigging, and a new mainsail. The Perkins engine has been serviced recently. An independent assessment completed in 2022 documented the boat's condition and value.
