O The vessel was built by the original owners in 1985. It was sold out of the family sometime after (known as "Starfire"), but it was purchased back by the family and returned to it's original name "Destiny" in 2002. They then sold her to its current owner in 2021, who was a member of the original building team in '85. They have cared for her and raced her competitively.
o At the time of this listing the vessel was on the hard for regular annual maintenance; including all new deck fittings, antifoul, and hulls topsides repainted (clear coat finish) (last done in 2017).
o The vessel's underwater sections show as clear and undamaged.
o The hull and structure still appear sound and in very good order.
o The vessel is in YA category 3 for offshore yacht races.
More info to come.
