This boat is available for a lease-to-own arrangement, allowing you to sail immediately while spreading out your financial commitment. Ownership will be transferred upon completion of the lease, which will not be before December 16, 2026. This setup provides you with the opportunity to familiarize yourself with the vessel, enhance your sailing skills, and plan upgrades over time, rather than managing all expenses upfront. The 2015 Wraceboats GP26 PATRIOT VIII (hull #7) is a Jim Donovan design optimized for ORC, offering impressive performance in a compact and user-friendly form. Previously raced by the veteran-owned US Patriot Sailing program, this GP26 is equipped for both competitive one-design and handicap racing, featuring updated electronics, a faired racing bottom, and a comprehensive sail inventory. Built in accordance with the ORC specifications, PATRIOT VIII is perfect for club racing on weeknights, competing in ORC championships, or simply enjoying a fast day on the water. Currently docked at Bert Jabin Yacht Yard in Annapolis, she boasts a freshly applied 2025 coat of Black Widow bottom paint over a Beasley Marine-prepared hull. The boat can be stored on her shipping cradle, in a slip, or on a mooring ball, maintaining peak performance thanks to race-ready antifouling. The GP26 is also trailerable for out-of-town regattas (trailer not included). With a recent set of 2023 Quantum dacron training sails and a robust inventory of Quantum and Evolution racing sails, PATRIOT VIII presents an excellent turn-key option for the next owner.
