Spirit 65DH

Spirit 65DH
I have much enjoyed the experience of specifying and building Spirit 65DH SPIRIT OF JOSPEHINE. I have always sailed but our previous yachts have been more production orientated.

Antares 44i – Sailing Linnaea
"Sailing in Maine is adventurous. The winds shift around the islands, a 3+m tidal swing constrains the timing of passages, fog often obscures visibility, and there are lobster buoys everywhere. Our new Oceanvolt system provided clean, quiet auxiliary power exactly when we needed it, allowing our family to explore in peace and comfort. Converting to…

"Since installing the ServoProp 6 months ago, we've sailed over 3000nm offshore. From Norway, to Svalbard and down to France.
