WILLIWAW’s original owners spec’d her to be the racing version of this design, opting for the carbon rig, deeper draft, and lighter displacement. Even so, she is easily singlehanded and equipped for cruising local waters before summer arrives. Her tall Hall Spars carbon rig supports plenty of sail area to enjoy the light summer wind and is easily depowered in the gales of the shoulder seasons. Finngulfs are designed to sail in the rugged waters of Northern Europe and compete with other performance yachts of that area, namely Swan and Sweden Yachts, so they are right at home in the Pacific Northwest. 

WILLIWAW was built in Finland and arrived in Seattle in March of 2004. She was commissioned at Canal Boatyard with the help of local vendors. This process was documented thoroughly by photographs including showing the sturdy keel being bolted into place. Throughout her time in the PNW she has been cruised lightly and kept in top shape. Her current owner purchased her with the intention for extensive cruising and has upgraded all her systems accordingly. The owner’s plans and lifestyle have changed making the call to shift to a catamaran, so WILLIWAW is now on the market.
