SERIOUS PRICE DROP - HURRY WON'T LAST - MUST SELL!!
Makani is offered for sale today with what is surely one of the best cruiser racer packages ever offered. The amount of extras that come with this boat is incredible. She is a turn key boat with nothing to spend. Everything is in tip top shape and ready for the new owner to enjoy without the hassles of having to spend time and money on upgrades. Her sail wardrobe is extensive and in excellent condition for all purposes.
For the serious racer, Makani was first set up as Honeysuckle and highly optimised for racing by Michael Spies and also had some very good results in the 5 Sydney to Hobart's she competed in under the previous name of Black Sheep. Her IRC certificate is a very impressive 1.101 and also comes with an ORCI certificate.
With a complete offshore race equipment list, including extra pipe cots, cabin linings, HF Radio, North 3DI sail wardrobe and 2 life rafts, these and so many other features has her ready to campaign in any Cat 1 race straight up. Hamilton Island race week also isn't far away and there's no other yacht available which will have you cruising the coast comfortably and then racing and winning the northern regattas.
For the cruiser, her 3 comfortable cabins, including queen island master in the front, 2 heads with fantastic shower and electric toilets with holding tanks and many more features, Makani is ready to go anywhere for any purpose.
