Tenacious was launched in 1995 as Teel.  Her lines are drawn by renowned Yachtsman and designer Ted Hood.  She has the revolutionary Hood design WHALE BOTTOM, which is a deep hull form that utilises large deadrise angles to create room for low internal ballast.  The two centreboards provide the necessary lift for upwind sailing. This arrangement creates a very large boat that has an extremely shoal draft for her size. Tenacious was styled by Andrew Winch and Ted Fontaine with Interior design by David Easton, this team put together an immaculate Yacht.  The room created by the WHALE hullform has been utilised to great effect.

 

Constantly updated to the highest standards, Tenacious boasts such a plethora of electrical gadgets and gizmo's to satisfy even the most dedicated tecno junkie. High speed wireless internet, HDTV, AIS, electronic charting - all are fitted to enable Tenacious to act not only as a pleasure craft but also - if needed - a floating office - if you wish to take your eyes off the beautiful scenery surrounding the Yacht that is! dit Text
