Broker Overview
The credit of this magnificent design and build concept belongs to the creative mind of Mr. Roy Disney. A truly stunning mix of performance, form and function all wrapped up in the most attractive package imaginable. The team at Reichel /Pugh Yacht Design and Westerly Marine of Southern California and the top-notch project managers and build coordinators from PYWACKET racing rounded out the dream and vison to precise measures.
LAURA has undergone a recent transformation to enhance her performance, ease of handling, and overall enjoyment. The massive over length spinnaker pole handled by three deck crew has been replaced by a custom engineered and fabricated removable carbon fiber bow sprit. A three sail, downwind inventory dimensioned to work with the sprit complete the package. Cuban Fiber Code Zero on a KZ Furler with Future Fibers Cable Luff System plus A-2 and A-3 simply to name a few.
Upwind performance has been enhanced by the conversion from roller reefing to new slab reef carbon boom by Offshore Spars complimented by a fully battened North 3DI Raw mainsail with lazy jacks and 3DI Raw furling medium jib. The yacht is easily converted from racing to cruising sail plan overnight by a crew of two, however it is still easily day sailed in race form with slab reefed boom. Set up either way, all equipment is found in very good condition!

Cockpit
The centerpiece of her design, the large cockpit, can be accessed from either the retractable stern boarding platform or lifeline gates port and starboard. A walk-through between the twin helm stations leads to the lengthy cockpit seats separated by a teak fold-down dining table, with ample storage beneath the center leaf. Protected by full width dodger, this spacious cockpit with down lighting from the boom makes for an ideal entertainment area and al fresco dining.
Both helm stations, feature carbon fiber wheels, are within “finger-tip” reach of all sail handling controls and the windlass, which enables one person to set sail from the helm. Instrumentation displays include repeaters from the navigation station close-by and easy to read 40/40s on the mast.

Deck
It is a delight to walk forward on the uncluttered deck where all the opening deck hatches are recessed.
The sail and chain locker, with independent bilge pump and fresh-water wash-down controls, is well laid out with ample stowage space for sails, fenders, dock lines and cleaning gear.
The anchor and roller are extracted from a recessed well hydraulically, then handled via a Lewmar windlass with a wildcat. Holding gear consists of stainless CQR anchor with an appropriate length of chain and an additional aluminum fortress anchor with chain and rode for race mode.
The stylish raised coach house offers security on deck, a beautiful concentration of light to the main saloon and great protection for the cockpit.

Walkthrough
Entering her interior down wide scooped companionway steps, the first impression is of lightness from the port-lights and opening deck hatches. Combined with Majilite headliner panels and cherry wood interior the results are a tasteful contrast with the teak and holly cabin sole.
Immediately to starboard is the navigation station with a comfortable seat and good size chart table where all the electronics, monitoring displays and hinged electrical panels are easily read and accessed.
Forward on starboard is the gourmet galley with stone counter tops, three refrigeration boxes, double stainless steel sinks and ample storage.
Moving forward of the salon in the hallway is a work counter space and a size able storage pantry.
Forward of the hallway is the large master stateroom with a center line “walk around” queen size bed with opening hatches above providing light and ventilation. There is ample stowage within drawers, cupboards and a full length-hanging locker. The spacious, bright and airy head features a full size stall shower and granite countertops.
Aft of the main salon to port and starboard are mirror image wet heads with shower. Both heads are easily accessed by day guests and also service the addition guest cabins to port and starboard. Guest cabins have single hinged upper berth and fixed lower berths. The port cabin inboard bulkhead door allows access to the very generous and workable machinery space.

Broker Comments
Through two ownership and over the past thirteen years the listing broker has played the role of shore side manager, racing helmsmen, crew boss and most appreciative guest to the cruising and racing program of LAURA. First-hand knowledge of all aspects of this yacht is readily available. This yacht has always delivered as promised and amazed ALL who have sailed aboard her. It would be selfish to not take a moment to thank Lynn Bowser of Westerly Marine for the efforts offered by he and his team in this stunning, uncompromised build and continued support throughout this ownership term… As well, the continued support of Tony Beale and the team at Reichel / Pugh Yacht Design have helped enhance the magnificent attributes of this yacht for racing, cruising and day sailing.
LAURA is a stunning boat; creatively designed, superbly built and meticulously maintained. She is the perfect boat for sailors who appreciate the very best in performance sailing while doing so in comfort with minimal crew. She is a true delight to sail. There are few 60’ yachts where one can feel comfortable and confident, dropping the mooring lines and heading off for a day-sail on your own or with guests unfamiliar to the magnificent sport of sailing.
