"Chione T " is a small (LOA = 30 feet), heavy
displacement,
gaff rigged cutter, launched in March 1998. Designed along
traditional lines, with a long keel, but built from modern materials,
she retains
a distinctive "classic" feel. More specifically, she is a
Tradewind Atoll (formerly known as a Tradewind 25) built by MB Yachts
of Poole.
The purpose of this site is to promote our style of cruising on a "plastic gaffer" - Traditional good looks.
In summary, she's prettier than a white plastic bathtub, sails better than a country cottage, and will look after you better than your old mum. Registrations:
