‘The Dragon’

Sail in Asia's Platu, The Dragon is a fast yacht which is in good condition and sports a decent set of mostly new sails that are in the same excellent condition as our other Platus. The Platu class is very popular in Thailand, with almost twenty yachts sailing in Phuket and Pattaya. Sail in Asia currently has six Platus for charter. Despite her modest size The Dragon promises to deliver exciting racing in every regatta. The IRC is almost the same as a 37ft yacht like the Farr 1104. The Dragon  is in excellent condition and was re logoed recently. They are relatively inexpensive to charter and are a great regatta entry level boat.

Our One Design Fleet of yachts are all equally well matched, with similar equipment, great condition and almost new sails. The skill in winning rests only with the helm and crew so we hope your winning boat goes only as fast as the other Platus.
