Why do some yachts survive a century or more to inform us about the past, be celebrated and enjoyed, while others don’t? The answer is often a combination of a lot of luck and the quality of original construction-design, build, and materials. The C.O. Liljegren designed International 10-Metre MARGA, a participant in the 5th Summer Olympic Games at Stockholm in 1912, has certainly been lucky in all respects: originally built from the best of materials, restored by a team of Italian experts and artisans, and over the past decade campaigned with gusto and success on the Mediterranean classic regatta circuit. One of her most recent highlights was to win the Rolex Cup at Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez with double Olympic gold medallist Torben Grael at the helm. She’s ready for more of that!
