Description

FPB 83-1, WIND HORSE is an iconic go anywhere long-distance explorer yacht. The first of the FPBs (functional powerboats), she was designed by Steve and Linda Dashew and built by them for their own use. The replacement for their 80 foot ketch BEOWULF, around 2 years of research and development went into the design of WIND HORSE which was to be their ‘un-sailboat’ … A motor boat with speed, range, sea kindliness, comfort, recovery from capsize and with a motion that would be easy on the crew during long passages. WIND HORSE delivered on all these points whilst Steve and Linda put around 60,000 nautical miles beneath her keel. From their experience with this extraordinary boat, the FPB fleet became flesh. WIND HORSE was fitted out by Kelly Archer from New Zealand. Her interior is executed in high gloss Burmese teak and with high gloss teak floorboards. Today it would be difficult to find the timber and the standard of craftsmanship in all areas is outstanding. She is easily managed by two people, yet she has comfortable accommodation for a total of six. Her layout provides for the signature ‘Great Room’ deck saloon with a large galley, comfortable seating and helm station. With her large deck saloon windows of tempered glass, there is 360-degree vision. Forward is a large owners’ stateroom and aft two comfortable guest cabins with access into the engine room aft. This is spacious, well laid out and very easy to work in. She has chequer plate decks and good stowage for two dinghies and a small matrix deck or flybridge. In her current ownership, she has been carefully maintained and her systems updated as is needed. She is a handsome and purposeful boat that is ready for many more oceans with her new owners. The original build specification of FPB 83-1 WIND HORSE is available on request. A survey was carried out in March 2022 and the recommendations from the surveyor have been actioned by the owners. A copy of this survey report is available on request. The work list has been completed summer 2023. We have current photography further to the recent refit and these are available on request. The solar array and charging system aboard WIND HORSE has been upgraded and renewed 2022/23.
