Seller's Description
'Queen of Classics', 'Australia's best boat', 'Standout gentleman's yacht', 'Intoxicating charm'. These are just some of the many descriptions given by yacht enthusiasts and journalists world-wide to somehow explain how truly magnificent and beautiful 'Hurrica V' really is. Perhaps the best description came from Bruce Stannard of Maritime Heritage Press, and was enthused in Afloat magazine, 'I have seen some amazing restorations over the years, but this was something quite extraordinary. She is a tribute to her owner, his vision and his perseverance. She is without doubt, among the finest vessels of her type anywhere in the world'. First launched in 1924, she has had an exciting and captivating history including being previously owned by some of Australia�s most famous business men and serving Australia as HMAS Stingray in PNG fitted with fore, aft and side � mounted machine guns. After years of war service she extensively travelled the pacific with various owners until she was discovered in 2001 by her current owner. Over a period of 7 years �Hurrica V� was meticulously restored from a complete bare shell by Norman Wright & Sons of Brisbane. Not only restored to original status, but discreetly fitted out with modern day creature comforts, making her a gorgeous representation of the Edwardian Ketch, and a very sailable vessel to modern day standards. Some of her luxury features and discreet modern controls include: � New Hollow spars by Collars UK � 115hp Perkins including a feathering prop � Bronze highfield levers � Radar, Sat Phone � TV � Microwave � Washing Machine � Chart Plotter � VHF/HF Radios � Auto Pilot � Electric halyard & Mainsheet Winches � Bow Thruster � Furling headsails � Lazy Jacks for Main and Mizzen �Hurrica V� is built for entertaining with room for eleven under the cockpit awning around a fascinating 1920�s oil burner binnacle on the table. Her luxurious fit out includes a large king bed cabin with ensuite, two large queen bed cabins a main bathroom and twin berths in the raised coach house. The saloon table seats 8, and is surrounded by breath taking solid mahogany panelling. The couches are naturally chesterfield buttoned leather, nothing on this restoration has been overlooked. Regardless if you want to cruise the world in style or own Australia�s Queen of Classics, this is your once in a life time opportunity to make that dream a reality.
