The Flit was originally built for single-handed trans Atlantic racing in
1976 and was converted to cruising in 1984. Incredibly strong and fast;
this boat has made two single handed circumnavigation by all five southern
capes. One of these was a nonstop solo circumnavigation and the other was
made from east to west around Cape Horn. The boat has a rich history and is
one of the most well proven sailing yachts available on the market today.
All systems have been upgraded as of 2002. Recently readied for a trip to
southern Chile; the Flit is in excellent ocean ready condition.
