Description
‘Antipodes III’ is a premium designed yacht with features you will only find on larger ocean going yachts. Her oversized rigging for higher loads and a seriously ‘dry’ design brief for expedition sailing keeps her stable and you safe.
Ketch is best for all sailing conditions - when sailing with the dual helm you have the option to feel the breeze or stay protected under the hard dodger. From Canada to Tierea Del Fuego - her monocoque steel hull will definitely give you peace of mind…for instance the : 26x13mm heavy welded stainless steel chain plates.
Roberts / Sullivan R54E Design - updated for expedition in all latitudes and fully insulated with serious blue water sailing in mind. The vessel was commissioned by the previous owner, who oversaw the entire build, built professionally under supervision of Brian Sullivan, and Action Marine. The original plans were adapted and modified for this purpose.
