Dry-sailed from Nanny Cay Boatyard in Tortola
Vessel details provided in good faith; accuracy and condition not guaranteed; buyer advised to verify via agents or surveyors
LIBERTAS is well known throughout the Caribbean, and you can carry on her legacy on the racecourse or sail her into the sunset. Though optimized for racing, she still has plenty of potential to be a comfortable cruiser with performance in mind. She has dominated the performance cruising class in the BVI Spring Regatta 2022–2025 with a competitive CSA rating of 0.898.
Over $100k was invested in this vessel in the 2022 refit alone, including significant upgrades to improve performance and handling.
She is currently in the dry-sail program at Nanny Cay Marina in Tortola and has splashed for club races and, of course, the BVI Spring Regatta to defend her title in the performance cruising class. We hope to find her an owner who will keep her legacy going, but we would be just as happy knowing she is off to new adventures. Contact us today if you have any questions or would like to schedule a showing. Adventure awaits!
