Sad, but true..

She's been a fantastic boat, but now available to you..

Axiom v4 for sale; Paranoid Android, GBR3192

Absolutely, perfect, better than brand new condition. I collected her from Mike last night and she looks fantastic. Finished in Saab fusion blue metallic, with new graphics, and all marks removed, she's had the following work since the worlds:

New high modules wing frames, extended rearwards for outstanding torsional rigidity, with new large diameter front bars, and larger aero profiled compression struts.

New trampolines to suit, along with new running rigging, toestraps, and a fully spliced kicker using new Hercules Red Eye thimbles!

New high modulus skinny mast and latest Hyde sail, both only used 3 times at the worlds.

Refaired foils, including the famous bat-wing rudder which I have NEVER seen ventilate even in mid winter.

New stainless foil control systems for ultimate robustness, with the latest geometry to keep the boat flying high and safe.

All hardware is Harken and less than 10 months old.

The hull is strong, very, very light, and watertight.

Any inspection welcome, this is like a new boat, but without the teething problems!

Top speed so far 23.1 knots, can you do better? Possibly the moth bargin of the year for £6500.

I'm in Amsterdam next week for a trade show, so if any Europeans are interested I can offer free delivery to the Netherlands – but the van leaves Sunday night, so you'll need to be quick..
