Unknown 45 for sale in Howth Ireland

Remarks:

The hull was constructed in circa 1980 and was fitted out privately for use on a day charter basis for sea-angling and corporate outings in the Thames Estuary. At that time it was placed on the UK MCI Register. In 2015, it was purchased by Howth Yacht Club for use as a Race Committee vessel. Its large aft deck space, high guard rails, two powerful Perkins diesel engines, and unusually spacious fly-bridge make it particularly suitable for this purpose. The Club fitted it out for race management purposes, and it has become a familiar sight at most major events on the east coast. In addition to its regular use by Howth Yacht Club for International, National, and Regional Championships as well as for Club racing, the boat has served as a flagship for multiple events in Dublin Bay including Volvo Dun Laoghaire Regattas and the Star World Championships, as well as for Wicklow Sailing Club Round Ireland Race. This vessel is offered without race management equipment on board - flag and signal poles, flags and ensigns, number/letter display boards, storage frames, and upper deck storage unit.
