Even with all electronics in use you only have to charge once, sometimes twice in a 24hr period. Personally installed by Bruce Schwab (ex Vendee skipper) owner of Ocean Planet Energy.
Watt and Sea hydrogenerator (you do not even need to run the engine at all) - having mulitple charging options is a great safety feature.
Inverter to power laptop.

Great features of a CoreCell boat is how dry and free from condensation making for a warm and dry boat all year round. She was built to the very highest standards, her laminate build is such you will never have to worry about damp, soft hulls, delamination or many of the problems with production hulls. Her rudder is carbon and the keel carbon with a lead torpedo bulb

Galley is basic but functional as is heads. Lots of accommodation is given over to sails and safety equipment as has been required by her use. She could easily become a 4 berth boat if preferred

Commentaires du Broker
This VQ 32 is a truly beautifully built solo or short handed race boat. Drawn by renowned solo yacht racer and designer Dick Koopmans, hand built in the Netherlands by Vels in 2009 she has been maintained to the highest degree .
A joy to helm on all points of sail - she is fast in light and heavy winds. Her strongest points are
upwind (in all airs), downwind in the light she will sail around much larger boats and in heavy airs she has planed up to 18 kts.
Completed full IRC measurement in June 2019 (just before sailing over to the UK from Newport RI) enabling an Endorsed certificate. She was measured to get accurate data to enable an IRC rating review - she has been rated by IRC between 1.024 and 1.047 . She is very competitive under PHRF, ORR, and is rated a little high under IRC for a 32 boat. As a reference in light and heavy airs she is quicker upwind than a J105/9 -downwind in the light quite a bit quicker, and deep downwind in strong airs she is over a knot faster. Her results record includes -
Winner of the 2013 OSTAR Racing Division. Winner solo and double handed Trans Superior Yacht Race. Winner 2018 International Yacht Race USA to Canada. Winner 2018 Bayfield Race Week, 2018 Solo & Double handed championship and 2018 Fall Regatta. 2019 - 2nd in class 1 Newport / Bermuda solo yacht race.
