Leda

 

Recently purchased by new owner Peter Harburg, this Swan 48 will offer the crew, which includes Queensland yachtsman Mike Freebairn and many others who normally sail with Mike on Margaret Rintoul II, a very comfortable ride north with its luxury interior including mod cons, power winches and furling headsail. A heavy boat, Leda will need a solid blow to push her up the coast in reasonable time. This boat is designed for comfortable cruising but has contested a previous Sydney Gold Coast and a number of Hamilton Island Race Weeks. Purchased from Sydney, following the Audi Sydney Gold Coast Leda will head to her new home at RQYS.
