Remarks
"Rangeela"
is a very well balanced fast seakindly sailing boat
"Rangeela" was heavily influenced from the Laurent Giles Vertue design in Tasmania, there was 3 of these Ocean 29s built in the late 1970s early 1980s, the design really meshed the classic hull lines into more generous proportions, head room, large cockpit and longer overall with modern composite boat building materials, while still useing lots of traditional materials, teak, bronze and a laid timber deck.
She one of the safest seakindly yachts to sail Oceans around the world safely.
Everthing about Rangeela feels right', shes strong, beautiful and shes been a pleasure to sail these last 10 years.
