2020 ROCKALL is now for sale.. Originally built as BRIBON for the King of Spain, before she became "Flying Jenny", "Ice Fire", "RKO" and now "ROCKALL", Her most recent ownership has by far and away been her most successful and competitive spell, with the last two owners putting her through what can only be described as a "complete overhaul" when they purchased her in 2016 and again in 2017. Under the direction of Gavin Brady, ROCKALL (then RKO) was transformed into one of Australia's most competitive TP's and arguably there is not a better boat that can tackle both inshore and offshore racing with the same degree of confidence. 2016 was a big turning point for the boat, with a new sail inventory and carbon rigging installed, it really pushed the performance in the right direction.Further upgrades in 2017 and again in 2018 from the current owner, include more offshore sails, a new PAC 52 designed rudder and a new B&G H5000 system, mean this boat is pretty turn-key for her next campaign. The boat has not sailing since late 2018, Hamburg Germany, Boat stored indoors since October 2018

2022 September "Seahorse", For Sale 2007 TP52 - J/V 2007. POA EUR. Located in Hamburg, Germany. This TP52, built by King Marine has been very nicely prepared by her last few owners, who all had high-level, offshore racing on their calendars. A high quality inventory, with new electronics, un-used brand new EC6 standing rigging and a proven track record - this boat needs a closer look!
