J/V TP52 For Sale | 2015
"Summer Storm" is a 2015 J/V designed TP52 starting life out in the 52 Super Series, where she was a multi-regatta winning boat as well as 2017 World Champion under the name "Platoon".
Her second ownership from 2019 (Ex-Outsider) then modified the boat for offshore racing, where she again flourished winning multiple headline events in class and overall at the C600 race in 2020 and 4th overall at the 2019 Fastnet Race (IRC).
In 2024 she went on to win the Block Island Race overall and Newport-Bermuda Race in class (ORCi).
Her current owner, who has continued the development and upgrade curve of the boat has followed a strict maintenance schedule since taking ownership in early 2024 and the boat presents at the highest level.
Additionally a huge inventory of sails in both 2024 and 2025 ensures a new owner is brilliantly setup for their first season(s).
This is a rare and hopefully exciting opportunity to secure a truly capable boat, whether it be IRC or ORCi, there is a real plethora of options afforded to a new owner, depending on where they wish to race.
A turn-key boat, located on the East Coast of the USA and can be prepared for shipment if required.
SUMMER STORM, is the previous "Outsider" and "Platoon".
Now based on the East Coast, USA, she has been racing on both an inshore and offshore platform, thanks to her extensive upgrades and modifications during recent ownership, to ensure she can tackle both disciplines.
Sold absolutely race ready, she is a standout option in the TP52 world, particularly offshore where there is a clear shortage of newer Gen boats that are capable when the going gets tough!

Broker Comments
This is a rare and very exciting newer Gen TP52, which should be a standout consideration for someone putting together a serious campaign in 2025 and beyond. As we know these 2015 boats can still keep pace with the latest and greatest designs, as the Super Series development curve is so incrementally small, so she remains ultra competitive! A proven winner and with all major updates already in place for offshore racing, there are huge savings in both money and time with this sale, let alone touching on her immaculate sail inventory! Now located in Newport, RI, she can be prepared for shipment if required and is without question a standout option in the marketplace right now. Excitingly she is also EU VAT PAID.
