Designed by Angus Primrose & Bill Dixon, the Warrior is a classic offshore cruising boat with a proven history. Launched in 1995, PR2 has had the same owners from new and has been our sole home all that time. She has been continuously maintained with many recent upgrades. We have always sailed two-handed and found PR2 to be easily handled by a couple.

Where have you sailed her?

From the Solent, UK, coast hopped to Gibraltar, into the Med, to Madeira, Canaries & Cape Verdes, across to Barbados. Cruised the Eastern Caribbean, west to the islands off Honduras, back east to the island chain, and extended cruising from Trinidad to St Martin. 20 years in the Caribbean allowed us to cover an awful lot!
