Originally a sloop. “When I purchased the yacht in Sweden she had never left the Baltic. The then owner knew the designer and with his blessing converted Yvette to a ketch rig with a bowsprit platform. I put on a normal bowsprit and built a mizzen mast from wood and turned Yvette into a yawl. This seems more appropriate than the aluminium mast that was poorly installed. She is now well balanced. I have completed a new lighter main engine installation, rewired and refitted a lot of the boat.” MESSAGE FROM OWNER(2010).
