The Pretorien 35 is a go-anywhere performance cruiser -built in France by legendary boat builder Henri Wauquiez. The Wauquiez company is known for producing some of the strongest and most capable offshore yachts ever built; that look as great as they sail. ALCHEMY’s medium-displacement solid FRP hull achieves high strength through a massive internal stringer system and a uniquely strong bulkhead-to-hull/deck fiberglass joint. The very high-aspect ratio sailplan drives this boat easily in light winds; while the very high ballast-to-displacement ratio of 46% (lead ballast located at the bottom of a deep sump) generates a very high righting moment, allowing her to comfortably power upwind in 40+ knots of true breeze (with sails appropriately reefed). The deep full-skeg rudder assures maximum control and security.

Multiple circumnavigator and BOC competitor Hal Roth chose the Pretorien as his cruising boat for his third time around -and was quite happy with his choice for comfort and functionality. The design has drawn rave reviews from many other authorities -including Practical Sailor and Cruising World.  There is not a more capable, good looking, performance cruiser in this price range. Don't miss the opportunity to own a true quality performance cruiser.
