Description

ANNA is surely more than just 'Spirit of Tradition' - she is also 'Spirit of STORMY WEATHER', and that sets the bar very high indeed. Tasked by her commissioning and still present owner to come up with a modern take on their legendary Sparkman & Stephens design #27 - winner of the Transatlantic Race and The Fastnet in 1935 - led by the late Mitch Neff, and with Olin Stephens very much involved, ANNA is the fabulous result, built by Brooklin Boat Yard in 2007. She has subsequently been thoroughly enjoyed (who wouldn’t?!) as both a cruiser and a racer. ANNA’s fin and bulb keel, spade rudder underbody configuration, and carbon rig offer sparkling performance, while the understated, low profile elegance of her above waterline appearance pays due homage to the inspiration, and she is a real home from home down below. A unique opportunity.
