Description
ICE 52 'Swell' — Felci-Designed Performance Cruiser-RacerSwell is a 2017 ICE 52 from Ice Yachts of Italy, designed by Felci Yacht Design — one of the most respected names in Mediterranean performance sailing. Built using epoxy infusion with a glass/carbon hybrid laminate, she weighs in at just 12,500 kg with a 25% displacement advantage over comparable boats in her class, translating directly to speed in all conditions.With an IRC rating of 1.201 (2025), Swell is genuinely competitive across inshore and offshore circuits, eligible for ORC and IRC events alike. Her 4.65m beam and powerful stern sections make her fast on the reach and downwind, while her 2.80m fixed keel — ballasted with 4,500 kg of milled lead — delivers the stability and upwind bite expected of a serious IRC campaigner.Lying in Marseille — one of Europe's premier sailing hubs and home to a deep racing programme — she is ready to campaign immediately. VAT paid and EU-registered, making her a straightforward acquisition for European buyers.A rare opportunity to acquire a lightly-aged, well-specified Italian thoroughbred at the heart of Mediterranean racing.LOA 15.80m | Beam 4.65m | Draft 2.80m | Displacement 12,500 kg | IRC 1.201 | VAT Paid
