| The following info was written in a Word-document, unfortunality the lay-out got somewhat disturbed on this site. Enigma of Wight General: Enigma of Wight is a Wauquiez Centurion 40, built in 1988, hull number 23. She is an Ed Dubois design, currently sailing under a Dutch flag. Tax has been paid (proof is available). Enigma of Wight is a sportive sailing vessel, made by Wauquiez in a time when Wauquiez made quality vessels. And indeed, the saying Buy quality, then you only groan once has definitely been proven the last years when Enigma of Wight circumnavigated, sailing a total distance of more then 53.000 miles. And has anybody ever heart of a Wauquiez where the keel / rudder fell of ? Some figures: length: 12,07 meters. wide: 4,09 meters, depth: 1,60 meters. Two cabins. Standing hight is 1,90 / 1,95 meters, so also comfortable for tall people.
