$259,950 NOW REDUCED
'Kraken 42s' is a fine example of these legendary Bruce Farr/ Cookson (New Zealand) racer/cruisers noted for their competitive offshore and regatta racing and outstanding construction. The Cookson 12's win races. Competitive on all points of sailing, these exhilarating performers are rated to reward a competent crew with trophies. Under the current owners, “Kraken 42S” has raced competitively offshore (including the Sydney to Hobart) and around the buoys winning a fine array of trophies (see GENERAL REMARKS for a list of most recent results). This vessel has been well maintained and is comprehensively equipped with the latest electronic performance equipment and a spectacular wardrobe of Doyle high-performance sails. A 40-hp Yanmar will get you to the start line and power home should the wind let you down. “Kraken 42S” offers some of the niceties of a cruiser such as an enclosed head with an electric toilet, hot water, two showers, a fully functional galley, nicely upholstered saloon settees and comfortable berths. So why not enjoy a little cruising and comfortable deliveries?
The racing season is fast approaching, and “Kracken 42S” represents an opportunity for you to mix it with the best.
