YACHT DESCRIPTION
Operating Area: France, Corsica, Sardinia, Italy, Marseille, Balearic Is., Spain, Caribbean Sea
IKIGAI was recently refitted and refurbished at Vitters Shipyard in what was effectively a complete rebuild. The spacious, modern and welcoming interior is fashioned from clear varnished teak. The large master cabin and two guest cabins are situated forward. Amidships are the spacious saloon and dining room. Behind the companionway you will find, to port, the brand-new high-tech navigation station, the chart table and the crew cabin; and to starboard, the galley and crew mess. The transom opens to give access to the garage where the tender is stored. Sailing IKIGAI is an absolute joy: sensational to helm, she is simply fantastic upwind.
