Andrews 72

 

Safara has recently undergone a substantial refit including an all new interior.

 

Often confused for a Baltic or a Swan or an R&P design she is quite inspired by the lines that we have all come to respect and love. Designed by one of the worlds top naval architects the Andrews 72 has all the speed and handling of a Transpac Turbo-Sled, the lines of the modern Swans with all the efficiency, strength, and practicality of the very successful J-Boat classes.
