Owner's Comments

In August, 2019 the owners sailed from Denmark to Tahiti. The trip is chronicled on www.sailverbena.com, the family's website. In the 2019 ARC Verbena was the first boat to finish with kids aboard and placed Second in Class A. She is ideal for everything from worldwide live-aboard, double-handed offshore sailing, coastal cruising, inshore or offshore racing.

At this writing, she is based in Tahiti, where she can be shipped or sailed to the USA, Australia or new Zealand. Current plans are for shipping to Florida in August.
