Owners CommentsAthena has served us well having sailed he down the west coast of Europe and then joining the ARC 24+ a year ago. Most of the time during our ownership we sailed as husband & wife team. She is a very easy boat to sail and handle in harbour. She was shipped back to the Mediterranean in the spring. This eliminates excessive wear and tear on a return journey back across the Atlantic. The advantage of buying a boat that has done the ARC is very advantageous as all the necessary equipment is in place for the next owner. She is a very comfortable sailing boat. Having a high bridge deck and fine hulls giving not only comfort but a good turn of speed.
