Right after being launched, Hallowe’en set the new record for the Fastnet Race to 93 hours and 13 minutes!
Hallowe’en is one of the major innovations by William Fife III. She is the cruising version of a 15-Metre, in other words a yacht like Tuiga or The Lady Anne. Fife had great success with this type of elegant and high performance boat, which he designed when he was almost seventy years old. Today, Hallowe’en is one of three large classic yachts whose home port is Saint-Tropez, where, along with Moonbeam III, Karenita, Hasvörnen and Lelantina, she tells the story and history of yachting, as Éric Tabarly liked to say. Even if the stainless steel winches are little bit a anachronistic!
