Rarely do we get an opportunity to represent such a desirable vessel. Designed by McCurdy & Rhodes and handcrafted by Palmer Johnson “AKKA” she is the best in pedigree. From an era when these types of custom built boats were designed for safety, style and comfort, perhaps AKKA’s biggest attribute is her sailing characteristics, whether it be winning both Mackinaw races only a month after her launch or to be crossing oceans in modern times, AKKA is a yachtsman’s dream. For those yachtsman seeking a proper yacht or a family “flagship”, This vessel is highly recommended.
