There is, of course, her impeccable and superb Sparkman & Stephens/ Paul E. Luke design and build provenance, and undoubted beauty. But MADRIGAL offers a rare extra dimension: the opportunity to purchase a #classic cruiser/ racer yawl at that magic 45-50 ft size range that has been much loved and well cared for by the same family since she was first launched almost 65 years ago. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/684/sparkman-and-stephens-paul-luke-46-ft-bermudan-yawl-1958 In the past MADRIGAL rubbed shoulders with some of the 20th Century’s most famous yachts in the Newport Bermuda Race and was a regular race winner on Long Island Sound. More recently she has cruised and raced in Maine and been looked after professionally, indoors by winter, in the capable hands of Brooklin Boatyard. MADRIGAL is an American dream.
From tears of joy, to tears of frustration, week 13 of the Vendée Globe was another emotional and dramatic one. And if you thought that the close competition was reserved for the front of the fleet you might want to think again. The 10th edition of the world’s toughest offshore race has delivered the highest level of competition throughout the fleet that the event has ever seen. From the front to the back there have been intense private battles that have lasted for 28,000 miles. And such is the pace this time around that even the tail enders are completing the race quicker than before.
