Overview
About this vessel
'Summer Storm' TP52 (ex-Platoon 2017 World Champion & Outsider) is a former Super Series Judel Vrolijk TP52 that has had countless offshore upgrades and is a step on and go platform, ready for a new owner. 'Racing Yachts' has an intimate knowledge of the upgrades and history of the yacht having one of our team being a part of the race crew under the current ownership. As ‘Outsider’ & ‘Summer Storm’ she has won several prestigious Offshore Races including overall wins in the 2020 Caribbean 600 and 2024 Newport-Bermuda Race, while she had several race wins in the latest 2025 Pensacola GL 52 Series Event, proving that she is still very much up to competing against the ‘Modern Inshore’ oriented boats. Summer Storm has been routinely developed and upgraded throughout her relatively short lifetime and comes with a huge inventory of sails in race condition. After more extensive upgrades and modifications early in 2026, she has now shipped to Europe and is located in Cogolin France 🇫🇷.
