HISTORY: The vessel was first built in 1966 by Kok Shipyards Ltd., in Muiden, Holland. She is structured of welded steel throughout. It is designed with a drop keel (which is ketch rigged) and has the capacity to be a fully functioning sailing vessel. She has twin diesel engines and when the drop keel is retracted, she becomes a conventional straight clear keel pleasure motor vessel.

She was rebuilt in 2006 and due to the amount of detail and expertise put into the vessel she took many years to restore.

Any retained equipment has also been fully serviced including an overhaul of the drop keel assembly.
