Main Description

Legendary Kelsall 46 trimaran originally built in 1980. She was sailed across the Atlantic by her owners and competed in many Caribbean regattas. After sustaining damage in Hurricane Irma Triple Jack was painstakingly rebuilt over 6 years by professional craftsmen. Under the careful supervision and guidance of her same owner for 30 years she was built back better and stronger than original. After a season of local racing she was prepared for and competed in last years RORC Caribbean 600. A fitting test for which she passed with Flying colors. Well equipped with a rebuilt yanmar and a suite of electronics. Now sporting a fully carbon rig and state of the art new sails Triple Jack awaits her new owners to continue the adventure.
