I met this comfortable ketch the first time 30 years ago. The boat was initially commissioned by Aga Khan and later bought by a wealthy owner who perfectly keeped the boat in mint shape. I immediately recognized Franco Anselmi Boretti touch in many small and big details: hull plan with short draft, gunwales shape, big side portholes for the superstructure. Every single part of this yacht reminded my granfather’s boat, also designed by Anselmi Boretti. It was a deep pleasure to hear again the owner after so long time. Today the boat needs a general flatting refreshment and I am ready to deeply survey her with any possible buyer.
