Description
The Tradewind 35 is one of John Rocks superb designs that was approved for the 2018 Golden Globe Race. They are highly regarded as a safe and comfortable offshore cruiser with a superb turn of speed. "White Rose" is well set up to do a circumnavigation. She had a huge professional refit in 2017/18 costing in the region of £60,000 and a new engine in 2020, so is undoubtedly a very rare find. Must be viewed to be appreciated.
