Description: Radford 50 Radford 50 - Ready to step on for Sydney to Hobart
Pekljus was originally built to Cat 0 and recently modified and updated with no expense spared by current owners to create a bulletproof turn key ocean racing yacht that is competitive, easy to handle and comfortable for the crew.
Pekljus is extremely well equipped and the owners have undertaken a year round routine maintenance program since purchase.
This versatile design and yacht set up provides any new owners with numerous options including short handed racing, full crew distance ocean racing, inshore racing or a leisurely weekend sail.
The water ballast system, electric winches and long slender design are suited to ocean racing or coastal cruising. An extensive sail inventory is included. Pekljus has competed in five Sydney to Hobart races including the last three
