Belle

 

Belle was designed by Simonis Voogd as a fast cruising yacht and built in Capetown.  She was first owned by an American who sailed her across the Atlantic three times, before being purchased to cruise around the French Riveria, Corsica and Sardinia.  From there, she was purchased by David Currie who has brought her to Australia and plans to campaign her in the Audi Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race and Audi Hamilton Island Race Week.
