Offshore Proven. Inshore Dominant. Pure Racing DNA.

If you’re a sailor who measures life by start lines, finish horns, and shared offshore miles with a great crew, V5 is your next adventure.

Launched as Victoria 5, this carbon‑fibre TP52 pedigree racer has earned her place as one of New Zealand’s most iconic offshore race yachts. Over the past 15 years, V5 has been relentlessly refined by three dedicated Kiwi owners — not preserved, but actively raced, evolved, and sharpened. With a milled steel canting keel, EC6 rigging, and continual upgrades, she remains genuinely competitive against newer designs, refusing to show her age.

On the water, V5 delivers exactly what matters: line honours pace, inshore dominance, and proven offshore reliability. She’s just come off major campaigns including the Sydney to Hobart, Groupama Race to New Caledonia, and Hamilton Island Race Week, She has quite the track record.

She is ocean‑race ready in every sense:
• IRC measured
• Category 1 compliant for NZ & AUS
• Full B&G instrument suite
• Sat phone, AIS, VHF, autopilot
• Campaign‑ready and professionally maintained

Visually, she makes a statement before the sails even go up. The deep blue hull paired with a white carbon mast and boom turns heads dockside and offshore. Under load, she’s all business — 3Di sails, 12 Harken winches, and a 24V hydraulic canting keel system built for sailors who want to push hard, sail smart, and go fast.

This marks the owner’s final chapter with V5, creating a rare opportunity for a passionate new custodian. Step straight into ownership and take the helm immediately — or opt for a gradual handover, learning the boat as part of an experienced, proven team.

This isn’t just a yacht. It’s a platform for competitive adventures, lifelong friendships, and the kind of stories only offshore racing delivers.

Ready to race. Ready to win. Ready for the next chapter.
