Top Ocean Racer For Sale
Tempest the historically special ocean racing super yacht designed by Sparkman & Stephens has been placed on the market and is for sale.
One of the largest and fastest sailing yachts of her time, Tempest was built in 1974 by Palmer Johnson and became a legendary ocean racer.
After an extensive life of ocean racing, she was completely rebuilt by Holland Jachtbouw B.V. in the Netherlands in 2000 after which she retained all the beauty and added the comforts of a new modern performance cruiser.
She remains a very fast and seaworthy yacht, proven in several crossings and the winning of the last Transatlantic race in 2005.
The pictures show Tempest with a blue hull. In 2009 an extensive maintenance upgrade was executed in the Netherlands, and the hull colour returned to the original Oyster white with red boot top and antifouling.
