INTRODUCTION
AURORA is a truly one-of-a-kind yacht. She stands out in any harbor thanks to her classic lines, varnished teak trunk cabin and beautiful teak decks. AURORA has had superb care from her four long-term caring owners and today she looks very much the same as the day she was first launched. It could be argued that AURORA is only the better for the years as a result of modern advances in gear and equipment that her owners have liberally bestowed upon her. AURORA is the ideal yacht for the individual who wants a distinctive, top quality, classic beauty.
