75ft Classic Bermudan Ketch
KAMALII is a magnificent yacht and represents the ultimate conclusion of traditional timber boat construction. The current owners have sailed around the world on many yachts, and the yacht is without doubt the most comfortable, sea kindly, sturdy ocean-going vessel they have ever sailed. With only a handful of owners in her life she has been the love and passion of all who have owned her. Featuring a deep, full keel hull form for enhanced windward performance for this deceptively fast and exceptionally comfortable cruiser. The present owners purchased the vessel in California and after major hull restoration, in 2013 cruised the Pacific to her new life in New Zealand where upgrading has continued in between use as a family cruiser with the finest of pedigrees. A detailed history is available on request.
