- Gazell
‘Gazell is the largest 40msq ever built. She has never needed any structural repair and after 74 years is still very close to her original state. She is easy to sail short handed, fast and capable of sailing in heavy weather and her long hull can reach considerable speeds’.
Owned by the current owners since 2003. (2009)
