Van De Stadt Helena 38 (2011) En vente

Van de Stadt Helena 38 - Vagabond
Vagabond is a beautifully balanced performance cruiser, combining classic European design with impressive offshore capability. Renowned for her elegant lines, solid construction, and rewarding sailing characteristics, the Helena 38 appeals equally to discerning cruisers and keen sailors seeking both comfort and speed.

Designed by the highly respected Dutch naval architect E.G. van de Stadt in 1996, she looks a more traditional classic yacht. Her moderate displacement hull, fine entry, and well-proportioned rig deliver confident, responsive handling across a wide range of conditions, making her as capable on extended passages as she is enjoyable for coastal cruising. Below decks offers generous accommodation, a well-appointed galley, and a secure navigation station make her ideal for extended cruising or liveaboard use. Whether you are planning serious offshore passages or relaxed weekends aboard, the Vagabond represents a compelling blend of performance, seaworthiness, and enduring style.
