She welcomes up to six guests in three cabins. The full-beam owner’s suite is positioned aft and benefits from wide beam and natural separation. Forward, two twin cabins offer equal attention to finish and proportion, with finely detailed joinery and classic styling throughout. The layout is clean and purposeful, with guest areas arranged to balance privacy and accessibility.

Step inside, and the tone shifts to something quieter. The salon features mahogany walls, soft edges, polished joinery, and warm leather upholstery. Overhead, a skylight draws in daylight, changing the mood as the light shifts. There’s a working fireplace forward—well integrated and fully functional—offering both charm and comfort. It’s a space built for use, not just display.

Teak decks run from bow to stern. The cockpit is arranged for open-air dining and sail-handling ease, with space to relax underway or at anchor. Lines are classic, but every detail serves a function—whether it's the sightlines from helm to rig or the clean transitions between deck levels. Her carbon-fiber masts and powerful sail plan give her range, pace, and control across a wide weather window.

Underway, METEOR carries both range and balance. She cruises comfortably at 10 knots, with a top speed of 16 knots under power. The hull and rig work together in a way that rewards attentive handling—classic in spirit, capable by design. Her technical upkeep has been consistent, and her pedigree makes her a rare opportunity for any buyer seeking a proven schooner with global reach.
