Don't know Vic Carpenter? Passing Wind, Carpenter’s final yacht completed, stands alone as the life’s work of this incredibly skillful yacht builder, designer and master craftsman. All doors are one-piece solid slabs of Honduran mahogany. The inlay work on the counters, tables, and transom, all done by Vic himself, are worthy of any art gallery. Custom hardware and exquisite woodworking details abound with its parquet cabin sole and leather-covered settees and cushions. There is not an inelegant detail aboard the vessel and even the bilges are beautifully finished.

Kailani is a world-class ocean cruising sailboat designed by Steve Dashew and built of GRP by the highly respected yard of Salthouse Brothers in Auckland, NZ. She is the last Deerfoot ever produced and has brought her current owner around the world, completing their second circumnavigation. Deerfoot Yachts are quick, safe, easy to handle and maintain, and durable. These hallmarks have created a legendary, almost cult like following. Dashew yachts are designed from his personal experience of what it takes for a crew of two to safely cruise around the world.
