92' Martin Francis Aluminium
Centreboard Cutter
A
superb ocean-going yacht
Sold
by us to present owners, who conducted a virtual rebuild at a leading Australian
yard. This included new teak decks, completely new interior joinery, wiring, plumbing
etc. New engine and generators. New air conditioning / watermaker / hydraulics
/ winches / safety equipment / instrumentation. Mast overhaul and repaint. New
Dyeform standing rigging. New Smartboom. New winches.
DIABLESSE has
cruised the South Pacific, then north to Japan and on to Russia. Next across the
Bering Strait to the Alaskan coast. Finally through Panama to Cuba where we visited
her in mid-March 2006. She's an exceptionally good looking yacht of first rate
performance and with a centreboard configuration giving a minimum draft of only
8.75ft. Our photo shows her "hat-less", but she has a sturdy Bimini
which protects the whole of her forward cockpit.
