“VIVEKA”
72 ft Frank Paine Bermudian Staysail Schooner 1930
It has been said that few yacht designers manipulated the Universal and International Sailing Rules to greater advantage than Frank Paine. Perhaps best known for
the J Class YANKEE (1929) and Bermuda Race record holder HIGHLAND LIGHT (1931), his main body of work was in the 6 and 8 Metre (International) and Q and
R (Universal) Rule classes. VIVEKA’s lines more than hint of her origins as a smaller YANKEE. The current owner has embarked on what can only be described as
an immaculate restoration, the structural aspects of which are now complete. This is a unique opportunity to finish this project; the owner free to select her inventory
and define her final specification. VIVEKA hits that sweet spot at 72 foot – comparable with the Fife designed HALLOWEEN and LATIFA; space enough to offer
substantial accommodation but without the need for a large crew – indeed her former owner sailed her round the World – much of it on his own!
