WHIRLWIND is a versatile cruiser / racer with German Frers' unmistakable flair for a fast - handsome design. The plan is comfortable and inviting. The deck layout allows for many guests, or racing crew. Performance under sail will satisfy the most competetive yachtsmen.

In many ways the CS 50 is comperable to the Swan 51 also a German Frers design. This makes owning WHIRLWIND financialy attractive at a purchase price half that of a Swan 51.

Canadian Sailcraft built high quality yachts that surpass owner expectations. In fact, WHIRLWIND's original owner was the CEO of Canadian Sailcraft who sailed her with his family through the Caribbean.

WHIRLWIND'S present owner has consistently upgraded this yacht.
