Lady Be: A Carbon-Fiber Time Machine with Racing Bloodlines

Some boats are floating apartments. Others are weekend escape pods. Lady Be? She’s a time capsule from the golden age of offshore racing, meticulously crafted and still itching to stretch her legs. Designed by Germán Frers, built by Beneteau, and born in an era when innovation meant breaking rules, not just budgets—she’s now my sailing partner, restoration project, and perhaps, occasional tormentor. Welcome aboard.
