Crazy Horse yacht is a custom offshore racing sailboat designed by Judel/Vrolijk and built in 1990 by Baltic Custom Yachts in Finland. The boat is an exceptional example of Finnish craftsmanship in a competitive offshore racer. Since acquiring the boat in 2012, the current owner, (a shipyard owner) has been meticulously upgrading and maintaining the boat to a very high standard. A case in point: the boat has been "dry-sailed" since the current owner acquired her.
Unlike many of her stripped out racing competitors, Crazy Horse yacht has the added feature of a proper main salon, minimal galley and a private cabin and enclosed head. Being built by Baltic, the quality of the joinery rivals that of any luxury cruising yacht. Weights of these cruising amenities are in the middle of the boat so as not to compromise the sailing performance of the boat. The ends are kept spartan and light as you would expect in a world-class racing boat.
Starting in the bow, the forepeak is virtually empty with the exception of two folding pipe berths. These would be appropriate for mooring / dockside use or while underway downwind in light to moderate conditions. There are also storage cubbies, port and starboard, at the aft end of the forepeak for crew gear, equipment tools, etc. (If anyone were interesting in increasing cruising capabilities, the forepeak has plenty of room to be retrofitted with a forward cabin and head)
Aft of the forepeak, is the main salon with a comfortable L-shaped settee to port and a straight settee to starboard. There are folding pipe-berths above and outboard of both settees. all settees and berths have lee cloths for comfortable offshore sleeping.
On the port side, aft of the main salon on the port side is a modest L-shaped galley with an Alpes stainless steel 3-burner propane stove with oven and electric propane solenoid, a single basin stainless steel sink and a stainless steel lined ice box. (The ice box previously had a cold plate and could be reconfigured to have refrigeration).
Aft of the galley on the port side is a proper nav station with full electronics, navigation and communications equipment (See Electronics list for details)
Aft of the nav station is a double berth which can be configured as two single berths with a lee-cloth separator. Above the double berth is a folding pipe berth for racing.
On the Starboard side, aft of the main salon is the head with sink, toilet and plenty of storage. The head has doors opening inboard to the main cabin as well as aft to a private cabin
Aft of the head, is a private cabin with a double berth which can be configured as two single berths with a lee-cloth separator. Above the double berth is a folding pipe berth for racing. The cabin also features a small settee for sitting as well as a hanging locker and storage shelves. The cabin has direct access inboard to the main cabin and forward directly into the head.
The deck layout is what you would expect in a competitive ocean racing sailboat. The cockpit is wide and open and utmost consideration is given to efficient sail handling. All halyards, reefing lines and boom vang controls are lead aft to new Harken winches either side of the main companionway. New Harken primary winches are powered by a new Harken pedestal in the forward end of the cockpit. Secondary winches aft of the primaries are likewise new and by Harken. At the aft end of the cockpit is a large elk-hide wrapped steering wheel. Steering is comfortable whether sitting to weather on the side-deck or standing aft, going downwind. Running backstay winches are aft of the steering wheel clustered near centerline.
