One Owner, delivered 2018, Vanilla 2's performance pedigree is immediately obvious with her plumb bow, very wide stern, powerful bulb keel, deep balanced rudder for responsive manouvering under sail and with the addition of the lowerable bow thruster, easier berthing. The twin steering stations give the helmsman perfect vision for optimised sailing and the Harkan electric winches in her spacious well designed cockpit make it easy to sail her shorthanded and take the hard work out of managing her substantial sail area. Vanilla 2 has a Hydranet radial cut main and Hydranet radial cut furling headsail as well as a furling code zero and spinnaker for racing or performance cruising. Vanilla 2 has proven to be the perfect blend of racer/cruiser with her spacious cockpit for enetrtaining, her luxurious interior, and her three spacious air conditioned cabins including the owner's ensuited island bed stateroom forward.
Her hand laminated and vacuum bonded polyester/foam core sandwich hull (solid glass below the waterline) is moulded as a single piece. An inward flange provides a solid bulwark at the joint that helps alleviate stress during de-moulding. An integral grid to help distribute loads, is fused to the hull and over laminated in high stress areas. The cast iron L- shaped keel with a large bulb provides immense righting moment and stability under sail. A 7/8ths fractional rig supports double aft-swept spreaders and a total sail area of 1,400ft², which is divided between an overlapping headsail and a slab reefed full batten mainsail. The plumb bow has an intergrated bowspirit for the code zero.
The light timber finishes below decks, large opening hatches over the saloon for flow through ventilation, to port a U- shaped settee that seats six and to starboard a pilot berth / seating another three, is fabulous for entertaining after a hectic race or an invigorating coastal passage.
The u- shaped galley is forward of the saloon to port and is equipped with a three burner gimballed Force 10 gas stove/ oven, microwave, a large stainless steel sink, coffee machine, heaps of cupboards above and below the bench tops. The large front opening isotherm fridge and freezer are opposite.
The owner's Island bed stateroom forward is incredibly spacious and has the shower to port and head to starboard. The two quarter ensuited queen cabins aft are way too comfortable for guests... They'd never want to leave.
Vanilla 2 is the perfect blend of successful racer and preformance cruiser with her fabulous light timber fitout, electric winches, air conditioning, large refrigeration, wine cellar, three en-suited staterooms she is the perfect live aboard cruising yacht.
No need to wait for a brand new boat, Vanilla 2 is the closest thing to a new boat available for immediate delivery for substantially under new cost.
