A brave delivery crew  pumped  the run-down beauty under engine all the way from Marina del Rey to Ensenada in Mexico, where she was loaded onto a freighter that took her through the Panama Canal to the east coast of the USA. There she briefly came to Derecktor’s while the owner and his team decided what to do with her from here onwards. Robbe & Berking Classics in Flensburg was then chosen for the major overhaul of the hull, deck and superstructure. This yard has earned a widespread reputation for restoring and building historic racing yachts according to original plans.
