Despite the strong emotional bond (the boat has been in the family for 48 years!) it has been decided to pass the helm of Golondrina to a new owner who intends to carry out the necessary renovation work, the most important of which are: 

the rebuilding of the deck,

the planksheer and wash board  

 replacement of the chainplates

shrouds and stays 

 regeneration of the engine

 repainting if you want to bring it back totally to new.

A new group of classic racing yachts has just been founded , the ONE TON CLASSIC  ( One tonner RORC  boats designed / built between 1965-1970) and Golondrina is a very important, fast,beutiful iconic example
