Cole 43 - Set up for Circumnavigation Single Handed


Solo Globe Challenger - Cole 43 Some yachts have a history. Solo Globe Challenger has a legend. Designed by respected Australian yacht designer Peter Cole and launched in 1984, this Cole 43 is a proven bluewater yacht with an extraordinary offshore pedigree. Previously owned by renowned Australian adventurer Tony Mowbray, Solo Globe Challenger achieved international recognition when Tony sailed her solo, nonstop and unassisted around the world in 2000 - 01, spending 181 consecutive days at sea. The Cole 43 is admired for its sturdy construction, excellent seakeeping and balanced sailing performance. Strong enough for serious offshore passages yet fast and responsive under sail, Solo Globe Challenger offers the reassuring feel of a genuine ocean-going yacht. Her practical interior provides comfortable accommodation for extended cruising, with the security, storage and liveability required for long periods aboard. Elegant lines and a purposeful deck layout complete a yacht equally suited to coastal cruising, bluewater adventures or competitive sailing. Solo Globe Challenger has continued to cross oceans and undertake demanding offshore passages, proving the strength and capability of the Cole 43 design. This is not simply another production yacht. It is a strong, fast and comfortable ocean voyager with a remarkable Australian sailing history. Solo Globe Challenger is ready for its next chapter - and an owner prepared to continue her story.
