Description: Randell 31 Blythe Spirit Sloop

'Sylphide' was built in 1963 for the Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race: she completed 5! She was a participant in many Gladstone to Brisbane races and has been cherished by 5 owners from Queensland, Victoria, Tasmania. 'Sylphide' returned to Sydney in 2002. Since then, cruising the East Coast of Australia and Western Pacific, and even participating in Veterans Races at the CYCA. This boat is excellent buying; sound and original. A tribute, the yacht is of the sixties. Len Randell has a very nice designers' eye, and the Blythe Star series was one of his more successful designs.
