Botin 65 - King Marine built carbon 65ft racer, like new Sailing yacht High Spirit is a BOTIN 65 built by Spanish shipyard King Marine and launched end 2015. She was based on the design of sailing yacht Caro. There were no costs spared in building this magnificent racer. Only the best yachting suppliers were involved in this project. From design and yard to B&G Electronics, VMG, Cariboni Carbon, Aramare Ropes, Southern Spars and so on. She is a truly unique symbiosis of 100% racing yacht with a functional, yet stylishly designed interior that can confidently claim to be a new standard in the world of race-cruisers in the range of 60-70 feet. She represents a unique opportunity for the most sophisticated and discerning yachtsmen to purchase a brand new, stylish and fastest sailing yacht in the world without waiting for a delivery period of 18 months. During winter 2015 the yacht was prepared for races, including the mast configuration and rigging setup, optimization of sail control process, making new sails charts, etc. The yacht is now perfect in operation of sails and has stable heading for any wind. Very easily she goes to hydroplaning after 10 knots. On reaching at 25-27 knots boat picks up speed of 20-22 knots. She is based in Valencia and ready for inspection at any time.
