Turn Key Ready. Just Add Food and Fuel And Start Your Adventure In The Heart Of The Caribbean! This Contest 38S 'INUK' was refitted by a Dutch couple in preparation for their trans-Atlantic crossing in 2022. New standing rigging, a life raft, and new mainsail were among the many upgrades they completed prior to their crossing. In mid-2023 they sold INUK to her current owner who undertook over $20,000 of upgrades and modifications including new air conditioning, new head sail, new batteries and many other items which are in the listing below. Recent bottom job now makes her ready to launch and go. Like all Contest yachts she comes with a Lloyd's Certificate of Build Quality. Contact us today for more information or to come see her for yourself!
