BROKER'S COMMENTS

A one owner boat from 1966 has to be a rare treat - KALINA is probably an example of what Alan Buchanan did best – moderately long ended, heavy ballasted, capable and fast sailing boats that now qualify as classics. Under her IRC rating she remains a force to be reckoned with in the right hands. KALINA also remains refreshingly original yet has benefited from the consistency of care and maintenance that only a family ownership of 50 years can bring !

History

KALINA was designed and built by RJ Prior & Sons to Lloyds 100A+ for the late Clem Challinor, a past Commodore of St Helier Yacht Club in Jersey, and has remained in family ownership to the present day, now owned by his Son Rodney, also a past Commodore of the Club. In a way, the friendship forged between the Buchanans and the Challinors, resulting from Alan’s work on KALINA and her Saxon Class predecessor SAECWEN, brought Alan and his family to Jersey to make their home.

Her plans show her as a 40 ft Ocean Racer - and she was designed for the RORC rating rule then modified for IOR. She was quite a handful in her first year, with tiller steering, which was solved by a change in rudder profile and wheel steering. She raced in the 1990’s, mostly under CHS / IRC handicap, and she has become one of the Island’s most successful boats.
