 Too Elusive PDF Flyer
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 was built by Southern Ocean Shipyards for the Around the World race;
all her sisterships 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 day sailing and racing.
Port Tack, bow shot
Too Elusive has been owned by a renowned sailor and cruised with his family extensively. For the past few years
she has been sailed in the summers in New England and kept at Front Street Shipyard in Belfast, Maine in a shed
during winters. During the 2012-2013 winter she had an extensive refit. She was fully repainted in flag blue Awlgrip,
and a shoe was installed on the keel.
Saloon
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. A new nav
station was built and installed with all new electronics.
New Nav Station
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.

sails can be balanced to match all weather conditions, she is a safe, seaworthy, world sailing vessel that is sea
