Owners Comments

Bahati Sana entered our lives when my father first saw her at the 1980 Southampton Boat Show having recently arrived from the yard in Sweden, as one of the last 3 boats built of her type. Little over a year later she was ours, and has been in our family ever since. My father would always catch up with Christoph Rassy at successive boat shows, and he would always ask after the boat.

Her first four seasons with us were spent in North West Scotland where she was cruised extensively before she sailed to the Mediterranean cruising around the Balearics. She came back to the UK in 2013 and has been based on the South Coast ever since. She has constantly benefitted from professional care and upgrades throughout her life, and I have also been determined to continue my late father’s legacy of keeping her in the best possible condition and up to date; I would hope this is evident in the pictures. Certainly, wherever she goes she seems to catch the eye and always gets plenty of compliments. Down below her interior also defies her age, and reflects the meticulous care she has received throughout, especially at the end of every season in preparation for overwintering.

I have long since harboured plans to retire and do the ARC and maybe wander beyond, but sadly this will no longer be possible. As such, she deserves to go to a new home where her new owners can get the best out of her. I will cherish the family memories she has made, the way in which she has looked after us in bad weather, the ease and balance of the ketch rig, and her sea-kindliness and the joy of romping along eating up the miles with the wind on/abaft the beam.
