Atlantic 42 Equity Share

[Flip 980]

I am in the process of buying (survey next week) a Chris White Atlantic 42, intend to use her in the Bahamas and Caribbean, mainly. However as I live in Europe I will only use her perhaps 2 months/year.
Is there anyone who would like to share her , both in using her and sharing the responsibility for her care.? To see what an Atlantic 42 is visit Chris White Designs Multihull Sailboats High Performance Cruising Yachts - Catamaran and Trimaran

Greetings and welcome aboard the CF, Flip.

Good luck on the survey, then finding a suitable 'partner'.

Tell us more about yourself.

Well, I live in UK, have owned various boats for the last 50 years,most recently a Chris White trimaran , and after that a NZ built 52' fairly extreme racing catamaran. That was sold in the US two years ago. I am looking for another Chris White boat, but a catamaran this time. ( see first post ) I have shared boats before, and it has worked well, as long as both partners are flexible.

Flip 980,

Do you know how many of those Atlantic 42 where built? There use to be one docked just down the river from my house. It was sold a few years ago.

"There are 18 Atlantic 42s sailing. First launched in '96. Mostly built at two yards; Lombardi Yachts in USA and Bongers Marine in S. Africa".
