VISIBLE IN LA ROCHELLE - CONTACT JEAN-PIERRE OR AUDREY AT 06 09 42 34 55 - The Golden Hind 31, built in 1968, is a classic sailing yacht that has gained popularity for its solid construction and timeless elegance. Designed by naval architect Maurice Griffiths, this wooden boat is appreciated by sailing enthusiasts for its ability to safely navigate long distances. It is suitable for coastal cruising as well as offshore navigation. This fin-keel cruiser with a shallow draft is beamy.
"P'tit bonheur" was completely refitted between 2009 and 2011 by its owner, with structural elements replaced, as well as numerous hull panels. The work was carried out professionally, which allows this vessel to be considered almost like new in 2011. The boat was surveyed in June 2022 (report available at the agency). Fouling protection repaint done in May 2022. Varnish needs touch-up.
