The story of ACE.
In 2008, the boat was hauled, through hull fittings removed, any soggy balsa removed then re-cored with balsa and covered with glass and vacuum bagged, per Farr International specifications (I have detailed receipts). The bottom was faired and coated with Interprotect 2000 barrier coat. Open transom and wheel modification was done the same time. Best boat surveyor in Pacific Northwest tapped the hull in September 2024 when boat was out of the water and found no water issues (he is available to confirm). This is the best FARR 395 on the planet.

With my background in boating, it has always been an easy choice for me to search for a way to make a living in the marine industry. My high school and college summers were spent teaching junior sailing and winters were spent working at a local marina and on the floor of the North Sails loft in Seattle. After graduating from the University of Washington Business School with a concentration in Finance, I furthered my experience in the industry working for the Seattle Boat Show. I enjoy merging my experience in the industry and my passion for boating here at Swiftsure Yachts. Since joining Swiftsure Yachts in 2007, I have been involved in transactions from Sweden to Malaysia and everywhere in between. I hold credentials as a Certified Professional Yacht Broker and licensed California Yacht Broker. I am a member of Seattle Yacht Club and Cruising Club of America and also volunteer my time on the board of directors of The Sailing Foundation with a focus on safety at sea. I am a past board member of the Northwest Marine Trade Association where I chaired the Grow Boating committee.
