Why This Boat Stands Apart
Solid wood construction (no veneers) by a master shipwright.
Artist’s interior: Sculpted woodwork, mural paintings, custom furniture.
Versatile: Perfect for coastal cruising, bluewater voyages (Arctic, Caribbean), or liveaboard life.
Full autonomy: Solar/wind power, large tanks, wood stove.
Proven robustness: 50,000 nautical miles, Arctic-tested, comprehensive safety gear.
A Boat Like No Other
This is not just a sailboat—it is the culmination of a lifetime’s passion, a one-of-a-kind vessel born from a shipwright’s artisanal skill and its owner’s 50,000 nautical miles of experience, including an Arctic crossing. Its molded mahogany epoxy-laminated hull (West System) combines strength, lightness, and timeless elegance.
Every detail—from the solid wood joinery in noble hardwoods (cherry, walnut, maple, cedar) to the artist’s touches (trompe-l’œil ceiling, decorated doors)—tells a story. A true floating masterpiece.
