Any ideas on the name ? - powerful looking vessel and fairly new I imagine although traditional in hull shape with small pilot house and flush deck - green hull. No photo sorry.

I worked on the Rigs near the beginning of my career, and was lucky enough to go out for a yacht end of last year.

Amazing piece of kit. The crew love it because there's proper sailing to be had with lines everywhere, none of this furling main business.

 

And the right shade of green in my opinion.

She sailed past us a week and a half ago on the outside of Rakino - she had all the sails up. Spectacular. And can she move!! :thumbup:

My mate got some good photos - but I was helming at the time.

Not sure why she was out - she headed back in later in the day.
