Your account cannot save boats.
"Zen" is an IRC / ORC TP52, designed by the hands at Botin Partners.
First launched in 2011, she is a later design of that generation, with powerful, full beam hull form and low profile cabin top, which has seen her benefit in the later years, with her offshore ability matching her inshore one
.
Almost unrecognizable since her original launch. she has been updated in ALL areas, incorporating new keels, updated rudder designs, new lengthened bowsprit, composite EC6 rigging installed, as well as a full offshore overhaul and refinement during the last 5 years, where she has proven to be one of the standout boats on the AUS circuit.
Excitingly she is now on her way to the Europe, to compete in the Admirals Cup for Australia, as well as taking on some other stand out events in the Med during summer 2025.
A very exciting opportunity to purchase a fully-cocked, turn key TP52 at the top of her game, with an enviable inventory, including many 2025 sails.
Not one to miss and ready to handover in Autumn 2025.
