Nirvana is one of the new breed of maxi boats emerging all over the world, except that she is luxuriously appointed below in comparison to other maxis. Designed by David Pedrick, who has gained experience in maxi boat design while at S&S, Nirvana holds the current record for the Bermuda Race and in her short career has achieved a number of firsts and seconds, including 2nd in the 1983 World Maxi Championship. Her battle with Condor will be worth following.
