Description

Tamara is a Contessa 26 constructed by Jeremy Rogers Boatyard. Contessa 26s are legendary boats due to single-hand round-the-world voyages and winning many races such as Round the Island and OSTAR. If you don't know about them, look them up. Tamara was among the first 30 ever produced, but the hull number is unknown. I purchased her in 2021 and have refurbished her from a tired daysailor to a lovely cruiser-racer. I've completed two Scilly's trips and entered local club racing with her. She's given me the confidence to move on to my next big boat.
