Marta jumped into the Snipe in 2008 to sail the Snipe Women's Worlds in Spain. She likes sailing Snipes because the boat is so technical -- there are lots of adjustments you can make to the rig to get the boat going its fastest. Sailing the Snipe also requires physical preparation. It's just one part of staying healthy by doing things that are fun.

With so few Pettersson launches for sale, particularly in the UK, VIRGO is a very attractive proposition for anyone looking to acquire an excellent example of C.G. Pettersson’s work, or simply a gorgeous ‘runabout’ or tender. http://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/553/VIRGO VIRGO is a classic wooden launch designed by the renowned C.G. Pettersson of Sweden in 1925 and fully restored to her former glory by the craftsmen of Clare Lallow’s boatyard at Cowes on the Isle of Wight. When one looks at her beautifully varnished hull and gleaming fittings, you would find it hard to appreciate that this vintage launch is nearly 90 years old. With her new Beta 60 Marine engine, ancillary gear and completely new electrical systems, VIRGO combines classic 1920s style - especially Pettersson’s trademark raised foredeck - with 21st Century technology.
