This gorgeous Italian 12 meter, Azzura II, built in 1985 for the America cup, is virtually one of a kind. She was drawn by the famed Italian NA Andrea Vallicelli and launched in the Arsenale di Venezia to enormous public attention. Built of aluminum with a winged keel, she was designed for the rough waters off Perth, Australia and has excellent seakeeping abilities. She has probably sailed more miles on her own bottom than any other 12 meter.
But the best part, Azzurra has been converted to a delightful cruising boat, with a beautifully crafted Danish modern interior. She has accommodations for eight, yet her flush decks remain uncluttered, and she has all the look of a race boat. Easy handled by two people, she has two rigs: the original 12 meter rig with long boom and genoa, and a new self-tacking rig with an extremely efficient full roach main. Both use the original mast and rod rigging. The result: a beautiful, easy-to-handle boat that does 12.7 knots over the ground. Her owner writes:
"When we first converted Azzurra to a cruising twelve homeported in Venice, we sailed the Adriatic and Greek waters with our family. After a few years we decided to return to our homeland Scandanavia and to beautiful Baltic summer cruises. We left Venice, rounded the bottom of Italy, passed through the Straits of Gibraltar, and crossed the Bay of Biscay on the way home. All in grand style. Azzzurra is easy to handle and we usually sail in and out of our harbor without our little BMW diesel. Now our sons are growing up, and sailing their own boats, and sadly, my wife and I must do with a smaller vessel...but we admit that the day Assurra leaves port the last time without us on board will be less that a happy day."
