Every once in a great while, a pedigree boat comes on the brokerage market that stands head and shoulders above the rest. Journey is such a yacht. Here is why...
Design & Construction - Journey was designed by Robert Perry, one of the finest designers of performance cruising sailboats. Some of his other famous designs include models of Tayana, Valiant, Passport, Baba, Tashiba, Lafitte and the ESPIRIT 37. Journey was built by Ta Shing, one of the finest quality boat manufactures in the world, known also for their outstanding woodwork.
Interior finish lavishly features an abundance of high quality teak staving, hardwood and veneers on bulkheads and furniture components trimmed with teak hardwood and rounded corners to provide a very warm and inviting interior. The quality of the workmanship is extraordinary and superior to more contemporary boats.
Newly equipped & ready for cruising ?
