Broker's Comments Pelle Petterson is a great designer and his sail boats SAIL well. light and fun to sail the Maxi yachts have a real following for good reason. This one has been much loved and is well presented. She has been lifted ashore every winter during current ownership. Including the fitting of a brand new engine etc in 2005 which has now run approx 110 hours only from new and must be a huge bonus on this boat..
