Description

Flush-decked and simply beautiful, the ‘Cruising 10-Metre’ INDIGO is a wonderfully preserved reminder that Norwegian yacht designers and builders may be said to have perfected the creation of elegant and fast cruiser-racers during the late 1930s. She was launched as GANNET III along with five Christian Jensen-designed sisters - one of them the recent Mediterranean classic regatta winner KIPAWA - commissioned by a generation of the great and the good of the Royal Norwegian Yacht Club brought up enjoying getting wet racing the metre classes, who wanted something more comfortable but not much slower for their older age. In the custodianship of two fastidious German owners since 1978, INDIGO has had the best of care; shed-stored each winter. A yacht that ticks so many classic yachting boxes.
