Too Elusive is an outstanding ocean cruising sailing vessel designed by Doug Peterson. The hull design and vessel number one of this series of sailing yachts were built by Southern Ocean Shipyards for the Around the World race; all her sister ships have proven their world cruising and racing heritage. Built to Lloyds 100 A class she has the strength to go anywhere and the ability to enjoy daysailing and racing.
For the past 12 years Too Elusive has been sailed 5 months out of 12 and kept in a heated shed when not sailing. Please keep this in mind with regards to use during the past 12 years and the upgrades and replacement of equipment during the winter months.
Too Elusive has been owned by a renowned sailor and cruised with his family extensively. During the past 12 years, she has been sailed in the summers for 5 months in New England and kept at Front Street Shipyard in Belfast, Maine in a heated shed during winters. During thewinter she had an extensive refit. She was fully repainted in flag blue Awlgrip, and a shoe was installed on the keel. Several mechanical upgrades were made on TOO ELUSIVE, most significantly her steering system and rudder bearings. Her aft cabin had a complete rebuild while most of the main salon also was rebuilt, removing and rebuilding including crafting, overheads, and replacing all the wood. The nav station was updated and new electronics were installed.
Additionally, her rigging was given a facelift with new paint on her main and mizzen masts. Front Street’s riggers replaced much of her running rigging and some of her standing rigging. Finally, she was outfitted with all new sails.
Too Elusive’s ketch rig makes her easy to sail in all conditions and allows her to be handled by a small crew. Her sails can be balanced to match all weather conditions, she is a safe, seaworthy, world sailing vessel that is sea-kindly in adverse conditions and a pleasure to sail.
Too Elusive's unique split-level saloon design makes it very easy to move from the interior to the cockpit, increasing safety for children and pets to move from the inside to outside and vice versa.
