2022 For Sale, Aurora 66' Reichel/Pugh 2006, Portsmouth, RI, asking price $575,000, Available after return from the 2022 Newport to Bermuda Race. Owner will consider all offers! Aurora underwent a major refit during the winter of 2019/2020.  She is in fine shape and ready for her next owner to continue bringing home the silver. Aurora was built as Blue Yankee in 2006.  She has had only two owners.  Under both, she has had a tremendous string of top finishes.  Too many to mention, except to say that the boat is wonderful on all points of sail and in all kinds of conditions.  Suitable for round the buoys racing, or offshore to Bermuda.  Reichel/Pugh did an amazing job with this design to create a boat with no weak spots. Because of the versatile design, she has not been and most likely will never be outmoded by any particular handicap rule.  The boat has a very clean shape that is not as extreme as todays boats.  She does not suffer from too much wetted surface and is easily driven sail area wise, as well as helm wise.  She is super responsive a joy to drive.
