First Melges 24 Arrives in Korea

The first Korean Melges 24 owner has just taken delivery of his new boat, which arrived by container and was unpacked on an incredibly cold winter day last week. Sadly the boat will have to spend a few weeks in storage until the weather warms up enough for her new crew to take her out sailing for the first time, but already the buzz is starting on the docks and other sailors are keen to see her put through her paces for the first time. You can find out more about the activities of the fledgling Korean Melges 24 fleet via the MELGES 24 KOREA WEB SITE and its associated MELGES 24 KOREA BLOG SPOT .
