I sailed the boat to Greece in the summer of 2022, a trip of 3800 nautical miles. We crossed the Bay of Biscay in 12.5 m/s wind. And from Sardinia, we experienced 53 knots in gusts at a 30-degree course. The boat is very stable, equipped with a professional autopilot, which has virtually steered the boat from Denmark to Greece without fail. The boat is a bluewater vessel and is suitable for long-distance cruising. It's incredibly comfortable to live in and handles tough weather conditions with ease. The boat is ready to go on new adventures.
