“Echo Zulu” is a GRP constructed Frers 45 and a rare opportunity to buy a pedigree sailing yacht. It was been prepared to race solo around the world as part of the Gobal Solo Challenge and would suit a competitor of either that race or the World Star.  She has all the kit and benefits from a lot of recent upgrades.

This is a lot of boat for the money, and with not much more additional work will be ready to take you around the World and to live that dream with much of the required work already invested in.

A part-exchange against a motoryacht might be considered.
