Patna is something of a time machine, a yacht that has never stopped sailing for long, and when she required restoration, it was done with such a light touch that she lost none of her patina. One of the first yachts to be designed after World War I by Charles E. Nicholson she was taking to the water just as he was preparing to challenge for the America’s Cup with Shamrock IV.
Patna has undoubted pedigree but was always conceived as a cruiser racer. She has ventured widely on both the Atlantic and Mediterranean.
