Description
The vessel is currently sailing in the Caribbean (Aruba —> Colombia —> Panama soon). Delivery is certainly an option depending on timing/location. I'm including a lot of information below, please reach out with any questions or for more photos! Built in late 1987 by Prout Catamarans Ltd. on Canvey Island, Essex, UK. She was completed to their standard specification with many owner-requested extras and was launched in 1988, hull number 315. She is one of only two 37 Elites fitted with the high performance double spreader Zspars rig which is exceptionally strong. With a deck mounted inner forestay it allows her to carry a larger staysail, which improves power and speed upwind and reaching. The rig was discontinued on later hulls due to the extra building costs.
