Arcadia was design number 1857 from Sparkman & Stephens. Built from 35 mm mahogany laminate, she has a striking varnished hull.
In 1972, Arcadia won her class in the Mediterranean Championship.
She has been owned by Louis and Patricia Housez’s family since 1997 and they compete her in the Panerai Classic Yachts Challenge.
Her deck was replaced in 1982 at the Pasqui yard in Villefranche. Arcadia has taken many overall victories in her time: Antibes (2011 and 2012), Cannes (2011 and 2012), Imperia (2012), Nice (2012).
She retains her original 1969 Canadian spruce mast.
