In my periodic search for UFO 34 references on the web I found this, which relates to the 2002 Three Peaks Race. There’s a picture too.

A well prepared and sailed 34 footer will have a great race with the other yachts of this size. Two year ago competing in the Cruising Division Damien showed that a well sailed smaller yacht could match much bigger yachts when he finished well up in the fleet using very little of his motoring allowance.

Unused UFO 34 for sale

I have recently discovered your web site and am wondering if you know of anyone who would be interested in purchasing an almost complete new and unlaunched ufo 34 currently based in Shoreham Sussex.

The major fitting out has been completed, however she requires standing and running rigging together with sails. I can give anyone who may be interested further details.

Look forward to hearing from you.
