Circe was launched in 2005 and was kept in pristine condition by her first owner, after doing a circumnavigation with the World ARC, and winning several of the legs, the owner upgraded to a new HR 53. We were able to negotiate her sale in 2017, at which time we began a series of upgrades to make her even safer and more comfortable than she already was.
