Breehorn design principles
The lines of a Breehorn are easily recognisable: the spacious fore deck, the short superstructure aft and the well-protected cockpit stand out. Elegant and tough, a Breehorn is designed and built for sailing in all conditions. These are sturdy ships made for blue water, comfortable in all weather.
