This unique vessel soon became established as a modern classic, effectively combining simplicity of design with modern materials technology.

Nigel Irens is perhaps best known for his globe circling fast multi-hulls but, when he decided to build a boat for his own use in 1994, his inspiration came from a Shetland Island fishing boat that he had once owned. This inspiration was melded with state of the art design techniques and materials to produce a unique design.
Roxane is a traditional looking hi-tech fast cruising yacht. She is a yawl rigged lugger with a loose footed main sail and unstayed carbon and epoxy fibre masts and spars. The Roxanne may very well be the only seaworthy traditional modern day-weekend sailer available.
