Yacht Description
Classic racer, restored. BOLERO is a 32m (104'11") sailing yacht with German Frers lines, built in 1991 and restored in 2001-2002. She is a proper maxi ocean racer with real pedigree, including major race history and time as the New York Yacht Club flagship.
Eight guests, four doubles. Accommodation is for 8 in 4 double cabins: a master with a queen bed plus three guest doubles, all with en-suite shower and toilet. Full air conditioning throughout. Simple, important, and it keeps everyone civil.
Water time is covered. A Nova Marine tender with a 180hp Mercury jet engine makes quick runs easy, and the toy locker leans active: a Laser sailing dinghy, water-skis, a three-seater banana, plus diving equipment and a Bauer dive compressor. Bring the people who actually want to get in.
Downtime still works. The saloon has TV with video and satellite, and there is a central stereo system with cabin-by-cabin control, plus TVs in the aft cabin and owners cabin. When the sailing is done for the day, the boat does not go silent.
