A yacht that turns heads wherever she sails. This yacht is classified as a BIP (Bateau dIntért Patrimonial Boat of Heritage Interest).

Our TINA is a One Tonner a class of racing yachts used to compete in the One Ton Cup between 1965 and 1994, under the IOR rule. TINA is the name of the very first yacht in a series of 40 units, 15 of which were built in steel. It also happens to be the name of Dick Carters daughter! With their elegant hulls and reverse transoms a design element pioneered by Dick Carter the TINA yachts are not only visually stunning but also formidable racer-cruisers. In the late 1960s, they won nearly every RORC race they entered (One Ton Cup, Fastnet, Admirals Cup, Channel Race, etc.). Yet, the TINA yachts are comfortable at sea. Dick Carter said: Its important for a boat to behave properly in confused seas. TINA sails very well, and where she truly excels is in her passage through the waves. We are therefore presenting an exceptional yacht, for the following reasons: Timeless, classic lines of outstanding beauty Still a fast sailing yacht Easy to handle, with a simple and efficient rig Built like a safe: 4 mm thick steel hull (5 mm for the keel), and a 30 mm thick teak deck Fully refitted in 2020 and in excellent condition despite her age This yacht is eligible for the Mediterranean Classic Yacht Regatta Circuit, in which she has actively participated for many years (9 times at Les Voiles dAntibes, 3 times at Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez, and at the Régates Royales de Cannes).
