A rare opportunity to own a legend

KRITER V, launched in 1978 and designed by André Mauric, remains one of the most iconic racing yachts of her time. Runner-up in the first Route du Rhum, this 21m cutter-rigged sloop was built for performance and endurance. Having undergone substantial refit works, she’s now ready for new adventures. BGYB reminds you she is still on the market.

Her elegant hull and sleek lines are typical of high-performance 1980s racing yachts, combining style and speed.

 

Proven racing heritage

From Route du Rhum to Twostar, KRITER V has a prestigious race history with sailors like Michel Malinovski and Florence Arthaud.

 

Extensively refitted

Major refit works in recent years have restored her to excellent sailing condition, ready for sea once again.

 

Modern rig on a classic hull

With a new powerful rig and deck layout, she balances vintage character with functional upgrades.
