OWNER’S COMMENTS:
TILDA was built in 1983 at the Southern Ocean Shipyard in excess of Lloyds specification and launched with the name OCEAN LEDA VI. Southern Ocean Shipyard, at the time located in Poole U.K., where presently Sunseeker Superyacht Shipyards are based, built the world's largest series-built yachts, Ocean 80, 75, 71 ('Ocean Spirit' with Sir Robin Knox-Johnson & Leslie Williams won both the Around Britain in 1970 and the Cape to Rio in 1971; 'Issobel' with John Kretschmer in 1991 survived dreadful Force 13 or so-called Force Unlucky in Mid-Atlantic; 'Elmo’s Fire' owned by Giovanni Soldini), 62, 60, and the famous Gallant 53 ('Express Crusader' with Dame Naomi James in 1978 set the Round the World record, the first woman to sail single handed around the world via Cape Horn; 'Huck Finn III' owned by Vittorio Malingri).
Ocean 62 is a luxurious private variant of a hugely successful charter boat, Ocean 60, many seen in the Caribbean. Total built something around thirty Ocean 60 and presumably around twenty Ocean 62. Tilda is a 62-foot well equipped, well sailing, extremely comfortable cruiser in great condition. Completely restored in 2002 at OMI AB in Orust, Sweden to better than new condition and named Tilda, all systems tuned, tested and updated. In 2017, she was extensively refitted in Southampton and received new sails, standing and running rigging. In 2018 and 2019 in Burriananova, Spain she was upgraded with several new items including a bow thruster and solar panels to reach the highest standards.
