pichavant ketch bermudien Pre owned

Built in 1973 by the renowned Pichavant shipyard, this magnificent 17-meter classic sailing yacht embodies timeless elegance and the finest traditions of French naval craftsmanship. Designed for offshore cruising and prestigious Mediterranean regattas, it captivates with its graceful lines, traditional hull, and recently refurbished teak deck.
A regular participant in classic regattas, including the Voiles de Saint-Tropez, this yacht seamlessly blends authenticity with performance. Its recently renewed standing rigging, modern sail plan, and Volvo D3-110 engine (2009, 3,096 hours, impeccably maintained) ensure smooth, safe, and enjoyable navigation.
The interior, crafted entirely in varnished woodwork, offers rare comfort for a traditional yacht: a central master cabin aft with a double bed and private head, two forward cabins with bunk beds and a shared head, and a spacious, light-filled saloon featuring a table for eight and an additional settee. The navigation station is equipped with a recent Furuno touchscreen GPS, VHF radio, and full instrumentation.
With its warm ambiance combining maritime heritage and contemporary touches, this Pichavant is both elegant and full of life—perfect for refined coastal cruising or joining classic yacht gatherings.
A vessel of charm and character, it stands as a testament to the very best of artisanal French boatbuilding, designed by Auzepy Brenneur.
