Broker Remarks
Doraisani, Tamil for Grand Lady, is a seakindly long range cruisng yacht for the serious sailer. She has already cruised the east coast of America, the Caribbean and the Med. She has had 4 owners and the third owner carried out an extensive refit in Spain. She is a delight to sail, surprisingly fast with an easy motion thanks to her heavy displacement, double end and long keel. She lies quietly at anchor whilst all the modern light displacement yachts are flying about. The hull was Awlgrip sprayed 7 years ago. Viewing is recommended.
