Free Spirit is a 52 ft Pilothouse cutter rigged sloop professionally built in 1995 by Kristen boatyard of Canada with beautifully rounded hull and decks made from 6mm steel with stringers and frames closely spaced providing exceptional strength.  Her displacement coupled with her stability (with very little heeling) in all weather yet she remains efficient and responsive even in light air.

She was made for any kind of adventure and has already safely cruised thousands of miles sailing from Canada to New Zealand and throughout the North and South Pacific. 

Bula bula !  Fiji is perhaps one of the best cruising locations in the world and from there one has access to all of the South Pacific and Micronesia..  Free Spirit is at Vuda Marina which is a quick taxi ride from Nadi airport. Free Spirit is USCG documented as we can assist with registration to the next owner’s country with ease. The sellers and the broker have extensive experience in the area are happy to help with the transition.

Wind River shows pride of ownership and is often complemented at the anchorages and marinas she visits. Over three years, Raffi has painstakingly overhauled, replaced, upgraded or added every system aboard, and has been involved in every aspect of the work.  More than $110,000 in upgrades and improvements have been made to the vessel’s rigging, sails, safety, comfort, electronics, and communication systems. All work has been documented on a digital maintenance board that includes checklists and service schedules, and all system manuals are available in a digital library.

Wind River is currently in Japan and will be sailing to Sidney, BC starting late May/Early June.  If purchased before departure, the seller will help the new owners deliver her to the South Pacific or SE Asia.  On arrival in North America she will be available for viewing at our Port Sidney sales docks.

US Duty paid.  We have extensive experience in international sales so contact us to find out how to buy this boat in a tax efficient manner.  No luxury tax for Canadian buyers and no US duty/tariffs for US buyers.

With a major upgrading and currently actively cruising, Wind River is ready for more adventures whether coastally or crossing any ocean.
