ALU MARINE 52 DI - An Exceptional Boat for Great Voyages
I present to you my ALU MARINE 52 DI, a superb long-distance cruising boat that has completed more than two circumnavigations since 1999. This sailboat is perfectly maneuverable by two, or even alone. Indeed, when I broke my leg in Australia, my partner sailed the boat alone across the Great Barrier Reef, the Torres Strait, and the Arafura Sea to Darwin, covering 2000 nautical miles.
Comfort and Performance
This sailboat has provided a lot of satisfaction, performing well even in light winds and always remaining extremely comfortable. It has been well maintained with care, and all maintenance invoices are available. It underwent a complete overhaul before leaving France and has been maintained in shipyards in Trinidad, Tahiti, New Zealand, Thailand, and South Africa.
