Koru

A Dream or Two yacht. She is a Beneteau First 36.7 cruiser/racer. She is classy, spacious and totally gorgeous to sail, whether carrying a group of beginners or racing during Cowes Week!

She was built in 2002 and was originally privately owned, so her condition is A1. Koru is fully coded to enable us to use her for teaching and she sleeps 6; having 3 cabins plus saloon.

For teaching we use a furling genoa and flaking mainsail (Sanders sails) and for racing we additionally have a spinnaker and carbon fibre genoa's.

Our yacht takes her name from our logo, the Koru - a Maori design.

The Koru is often used in Maori art as a symbol of the beginning of life (creation). It is based on the unfurling of a new leaf of the Silver Fern and is seen to represent new beginnings, growth, strength, peace and harmony and positive change.
