    Construction notes
    Built in USA by the Goetz shipyard in 2003 with no budget’s limit. The boat, seen from its inside, generates so much emotion such it was so well built, by enhancing the special manufacturing of the hull in kevlar. Complete and careful re-fit made during 2016/2017, the whole boat has been re-checked and all possible worn parts have been replaced piece by piece. Tailor-made boat’s cradle is property of the boat itself.
