The Contest 60 "Timina" is a true example of a classic blue water cruiser, built according to Lloyd's specifications for those ready to sail the world's oceans. Thanks to her robust construction and careful maintenance, she is in top condition. Equipped with first-class equipment and a sheltered cockpit, she offers both safety and comfort for long journeys. Whether you plan to sail along the coast or cross the ocean, "Timina" is the perfect partner for any adventure, both in the north and in the south.

Timina can easily cruise and be managed with a limited crew, actually managed by the owner alone. (Initially, the boat was built to sail worldwide for 2 people). The current owner has upgraded the boat to maximize the practicality of all possible equipment, e.g. autopilot, navigation equipment, solar equipment, etc.

Currently sailing in the Caribbean. Note: this brochure is provisional.
