2001 Rodolfo Foschi Design - model Bernard, 40 000 EUR

Bernard Model
A single-chine steel cutter. The first example was built in 1995 for an offshore sailing enthusiast who commissioned naval architect Rodolfo Foschi to design a hull closely inspired by Tamata, the last yacht of the legendary Bernard Moitessier. Only five boats of this design were built.
