Description
High demands
Happy Four was originally built for an experienced owner who desired a performance yacht with classic lines, a family cruiser that could also compete in regattas such as St Tropez. Creatives from Holland (Hoek Design) and New Zealand (Alloy Yachts) partnered to great effect to deliver an exceptionally elegant yacht. Happy Four‘s long overhangs and moderate sheer belie the surprisingly fast performance delivered by her aluminium construction and carbon fibre spars.
Simple sailing
Happy Four was ahead of her time in many ways. Smart solutions include a dual purpose swimming platform/tender storage transom arrangement, and a flip-over anchor set up that keeps her bow clean when sailing. Despite her length, you can sail Happy Four alone should you wish thanks to her furling head sails, fully battened main sail with in-boom furling and captive winches on all sheets. Manoeuvring the yacht is equally safe and simple, with bow and sternthrusters and a hydraulic stowaway anchor.
Rare opportunity
The same owner has kept Happy Four since her launch and never chartered the yacht. She has been meticulously maintained by professionals. This is a rare opportunity for you to acquire a fully equipped yacht in this style.
