Designed and built in 1914 according to the 1909 metric rule,
"Margaux, ex Caramba, ex Puntan" has been entirely rebuilt to her original beautiful condition, despite various modifications that have been made during her lifetime. Her owner is now keen to sell and her price has been reduced by 20,000 Euros to only 40,000 Euros!

OWNER HIGHLY MOTIVATED TO SELL!


She was designed by Bjan Aars and was converted into Marconi rigging before being purchased in 1996 by the existing owner who decided in 1998 to restore her back into her original state. Following exhaustive historical research, Margaux was given back her roof, rigging and original sail plan. Today, she is the only 6 M guter rig in the world and her dimensions are as follows:
LOD : 9.80 m, Beam :1.70 m, Draft: 1.50 m, LOA (bowsprit+ boom) 11.80 m, displacement 3 tons.
