Broker Remarks
Owners Remarks:
I have owned Katisha since 2005. I bought her to compete in the 2007 Azores and Back Race (AZAB). Since then I have completed another AZAB and two Fastnets together with several Torbay Triangle Races. All these were two handed so she is set up for short handed sailing. I have also cruised her in the West Country, Brittany and Southern Ireland. She has been stored ashore every winter with the mast down. Her engine has been maintained professionally.
Prior to the 2023 AZAB she had a hull and rig survey - as a result of this the mast step was rebuilt - no other defects were found.
