2002 Southern Wind 78

The 78’7 sail yacht ‘Kiwi’ is a blue-water high performance cruiser that has been built in 2002 by Southern Wind in South Africa at their Cape Town shipyard. She is the second in a miniseries of 5 boats by the successful design partnership Reichel Pugh Design and Nauta Design and she was last refitted in 2016. She is a seaworthy sailing yacht that combines uncompromised comfort and performance, making her agile in any weather condition and extremely straightforward and easy to sail. Subject to a rigorous maintenance program with a substantial investment made each year, she underwent a major refit in 2016 to restore to her original condition with many upgrades and improvements to keep her modern and competitive.
