The Artekho H-35 is a Finnish built cruiser-racer of proven design and respected sailing performance.  Bam was built in 1980, this example was displayed at the 1981 London Boat Show. The interior is quite small by modern 35 footer standards, with 5' 10" headroom, but the owners continue to be delighted with her sparkling performance.  The boat is particularly easy to sail with a light helm and all lines led aft to the deep safe cockpit. Recent upholstery, head linings, Coppercoat to hull and a new Genoa in 2023.
