1983 Contest 42 Center Cockpit Ketch Clean, Well Maintained, and Loaded With NEW Equipment Major Refit 2012-2014 Be sure to watch the walkthrough video above to see for yourself! This venerable blue water cruiser was designed by Dick Zaal and built in Holland by Conyplex Marine (Contest Yachts). Contest still builds iconic and sought-after sailing yachts today. All Contest Yachts are built to Lloyds standards, and are comparable in quality to any domestic high-end boutique builder. "Borne Free" is a real beauty with her classic lines and decadent high gloss teak interior. Her balanced sail plan and powerful hull shape are easy to manage and comfortable in heavy seas. This handsome ketch has undergone an almost complete restoration over the past 5 years. Her owners have poured their heart and soul into transforming this stunning cruiser into one of the prettiest and best-equipped boats on the market today. Her teak decks have been removed and recored with foam and epoxy. She has all new electronics, new electrical, fresh Awlgrip paint, new fuel tank, and was re-powered in 2004. She is neat as a pin, and gleams inside and out. This vessel is loaded with new and upgraded equipment. Take a close look at the full specs to get a complete understanding of everything this cruiser has to offer.
