Charter
Chartered extensively in the Mediterranean especially around Turkey, Sinbad became a very popular Charter boat
Refits
She has had many refits over the years and was taken back to the hull by the previous owners and fitted out.
The present owners are in the process of upgrading Sinbad with the latest navigation & control electronics whilst maintaining the original charm of such a classic yacht
