Sailing Yacht · 29,65 m PROVENANCE
Sailing yacht PROVENANCE is a classically designed, auxiliary ketch with the character and style of the 1960’s with the luxurious comfort, amenities and advantages of a modern yacht. Her strength and long range will provide endless enjoyment for local and world cruising.

“Provenance is the chronology of the ownership, custody or location of a historical object. The term was originally mostly used in relation to works of art, used in similar senses in a wide range of fields, including archaeology and manuscripts”
PROVENANCE is carvel built of mahogany and oak. She underwent a substantial refit in Malta from 2012 to 2019 where she was completely stripped out, partly replanked, beams and floor replaced with laminated beams, re fastened and sheathed with epoxy. The extensive refit enables MCA coding.

A staircase then leads from the saloon to a lower deck where one finds the VIP guest cabin, followed by the master cabin. The vessel’s wheelhouse is located on the main deck.
