The boat is sold with all equipment.
(We do not currently have a detailed inventory; there is a large amount of equipment and fittings to be seen on site.)
Sale due to bereavement - all serious offers will be considered (no trades).
The boat is well-built, but the new owner will need to update it in several areas:
- some elbow grease to restore its appearance
- painting will be necessary
- engine overhaul
- electrical system overhaul
- hull antifouling will be required (the last antifouling was done around 2021/2022).
Important: given the current situation, there will be no handover or familiarization with the vessel.
As the boat is unusual, we will not be able to answer all questions. Xboat will not provide a quote for any work.

A word from the Architect Daniel BOMBIGHER:
The LADIES form a series: deck length: 13.20 meters
- beam: 3.90 meters
- draft: 1.50 meters
- sail area: approximately 130 m²
- maximum load: 13 tons
The 13.20-meter Lady of Bermuda is undoubtedly the yacht in which I have incorporated the most innovations! Its design and construction specifics make it a true yacht, priced only slightly higher than a well-equipped plastic boat of the same size.
My primary goal was to design a fast and easy-to-maneuver boat, and I'm not kidding! I'm not at all athletic, and I never have been. I'm an offshore sailor who enjoys cruising and appreciates simplicity and efficiency on board. Above all, I like arriving safely in port and in top form! It was during an extended stay in the St. George's Lagoon in Bermuda that I first admired American bugeyes and Bermudian schooners. Their magnificent shapes, of rare elegance and incredible simplicity, command admiration. Their hard-chine hulls with pointed sterns, built using the traditional planking technique, inspired me to transpose them into marine plywood. Note that this isn't lightweight marine plywood used for strakes and bulkheads, but rather thick marine plywood on a robust frame, resulting in a solid, high-displacement boat with high inertia.
With its V-shaped hull, the boat is seaworthy in all conditions.
Its handling is exceptionally pleasant: no rolling or pitching.
I managed to design the chine so that it is horizontal and aligned with the waterline.
This makes it virtually invisible! Even when heeled! Lady of Bermuda boasts the grace of a rounded hull; it's a true yacht! Or rather, a Lady! thanks to its clean, elegant lines.
Marine plywood construction has thus reached the level of luxury yachting and, for the first time, has been granted prestigious status, while also becoming a reliab
