This Iconic, high level J121 has been professionally maintained for her one owner since new.

OWNER COMMENTS: The combination of 400kgs of water ballast, and smart sail handling systems, including hanks on headsails and multiple furlers, enables.
Darkwood to race offshore with 5-6 crew, but also works well with 4, and has even proven viable for double handed racing, particularly when utilizing its North Snuffer. The boat's extensive sail wardrobe allows multiple combinations, and is often triple headed when sheets are eased.
Crew love the set up: you are either helming, trimming or sleeping: no endless hours of being used as rail meat!

While primarily focused on offshore racing, Darkwood has also had some notable success inshore, typically with a crew of 10 (no water ballast) most recently winning Class Zero at Dartmouth Regatta.

While she will never be a Hallberg Rassy, the boat is also comfortable enough to do some occasional cruising between events!
We have loved owning her, but having ticked off all the events we were targeting (and more), its now time for a new chapter.
