"Gweilo" (formerly known as "Viento" in NZ and built originally as Med Cup boat "Container".)

TP / IRC / ORCi 52

Construction:
Built originally as a 'no-expense-spared' yacht by a German owner for the Med cup, she is the sistership to the all conquering RAN / PAPREC which competed at very highest level in the Med Cup series in more recent years.
She was built using a single tool female hull & deck mould. Structure made of Prepreg carbon fibre, with a high-spec Kevlar Nomex honeycomb core, which kept these yachts incredibly light and stiff.

LOA - 15.85m
BEAM - 4.418m
DRAFT - 3.72m
DISPLACEMENT - 6.850kg – 6.950kg - Inshore vs offshore inventories.

- Designed by Judel/Vrolijk 2011.
- Full pre-preg carbon construction hull, deck and structure.
- State of the art, Kevlar/Nomex "Honeycomb" core from Cormaster, was provided in pre-shaped panels, to ensure highest physical stiffness properties and zero margin for error fitting, which ensured minimum weight.
- Bespoke female hull and deck tooling. Sister ship to "RAN IV" on 52 Super Series circuit and the only two boats to share this tooling.
- "Container" was the second boat from this tooling, which resulted in an exceptionally high quality build.
- Keel fin locates into "socket" type arrangement.
- Built to ISO and Germanischer Lloyd exacting standards of construction.
- Gloss white topsides and cockpit areas.
- Sprayed non-skid decks.
- New light grey antifouling with hard wearing orange foil antifouling.


Recent work and performance upgrades from original specifications:

Additional carbon structure added into Bow from original Med Cup specification for longevity and to ensure boat was suited to coastal as well as inshore racing.
New stronger / lighter Carbon bowsprit, with STL of 9m, incorporating 2 Tack Lines
2019 New JV Keel 3.72m draft- Fully optioned CG with gallery for weight trim and composite leading and trailing edge
2020 New JV rudder profile on original stock optimised for new keel and sail plan

Interchangeable Carbon Wheels / Tiller steering with protective bars
Offshore sliding dodger over companionway
Extensive waterproofing works that have proved very successful
