CAPTAINS COMMENTS:
Lupa of London is almost unique - a dual purpose yacht which continues to win year on year. A cruiser racer with outstanding pedigree, but also providing a luxury interior. She sleeps 6-8 guests and 3 x crew
On the race course she remains very competitive - her results speak for themselves (see bottom) and of course Lupa's Reichel Pugh lines are stunning & timeless.
With the modifications to the mast, canard and rudder she will remain a competitive vessel for years to come.
Once the racing is done, she is a joy to cruise. Cutting through the water at speed whilst taking lunch in the cockpit without even heeling over. All capable due to the canting keel Lupa boasts. She is a one of a kind vessel and an example of Baltics Yachts excellence and renowned reputation for building strong lightweight Carbon composite hulls.
