Owners Comments
As our adventures on Edelweiss are coming to an end we now reflect on the fabulous sailing we have had on her. From leaving the Solent in the UK, in 2016 to present day, she has served us well as we have explored many countries and their islands. Comfort safety and performance has never been doubted. We have been proud owners of such a beautiful, head turning yacht and hope her new owners can appreciate her as much as we have.
HISTORY
This yacht has had just one careful owner since new and has been professionally maintained with regular servicing and a number of recent upgrades. The owners sailed her to her current location in Greece, visiting numerous countries en route, including Spain, Portugal, North Africa, and others. As experienced sailors and former racers, they note that she is easily handled by a couple and performs exceptionally well as a fast and capable passage-maker. She is currently ashore in Cleopatra Dry Berth, Preveza, Greece.
