Auckland owners, Andrew and Atka Reid have launched the new YD37, built by Yachting Developments and designed by Bakewell-White Yacht Design.
Named Anarchy, she had her first sail on Auckland harbour, yesterday.
Construction is carbon foam composite by Yachting Developments who are marketing the boat as a semi production one design. Rig is carbon by Hall Spars. Sails by Doyles and deck gear from Harken. Electronics by Beacon Marine
The design is officially known as the YD37 and is available from Yachting Developments for around NZ$600K sail away with instruments and sails.
The design was developed following the loss of the owner's previous yacht 'Django II' on the delivery voyage back from Fiji. Andrew and Atka Reid firstly looked at buying BBYD's 2008 design 'General Lee' from WA but soon realised that they could build new for little more than General Lee was going to cost once shipped back to NZ.
The boat is fully ISO plan approved and meets Cat 1 for offshore racing and is set up for fully crewed or short-handed sailing.
