Brolga 33
Berrimilla 2 is an Australian Joubert designed Brolga 33. She has completed 2 world circumnavigations, 2 Fastnets, 19 Sydney - Hobarts including a PHS win in 1998 and sailed to England both via the Northwest Passage and Cape Horn.
She has a spartan interior and a graceful, old-style hull that is sea kindly, immensely seaworthy and well balanced.
She is fully set-up for offshore sailing, and would suit someone keen on short handed racing or expedition cruising.
