Built at the Almaz yard, this aluminum ketch combines robust offshore design with meticulous Swiss outfitting. She displaces over 56 feet with a 16.4-foot beam, offering substantial volume for extended voyaging. The single Volvo Penta 120 hp diesel engine drives a Bruntons feathering propeller, paired with a well-developed sail plan that moves the boat efficiently at around 7.5 knots cruising speed.
The interior layout prioritizes self-sufficiency and practicality. Three cabins and two heads accommodate a cruising crew, while an extensive workshop area and generous storage throughout support extended passages. Heavy insulation protects against both extreme cold and heat. The boat is equipped with solar panels, substantial battery banks, wind generation, and a water maker—systems designed for ocean-going independence far from shore facilities.
Rigging and handling are straightforward for a boat of this size, reflecting her purpose as a high-latitude explorer. The current owner, an engineer, has maintained all systems and the engine with regular services and oil changes throughout nine years of ownership. She has been actively cruised in Atlantic and Baltic waters, demonstrating her capability in demanding conditions.
