(https://forvo.com/word/piera/), and well fitting on a beautiful boat. I saw PIERA from my mooring and took a row around this 1955 Rhodes design, yesterday afternoon.
It's not easy for a classic boat to stick out in my harbor, but she caught my eye from afar. I usually find pre 60's sailboat design a little dated for my taste yet PIERA, is timeless.
The most beautiful aspect (to my eye) of classic sailboats like this is that they are so small! 45' of 1955 LOA low freeboard and graceful sheer, looks like 35' of contemporary cruising sailboat.
I had to row close and stand up in the dinghy to get a sense of the on deck feel, on PIERA. Nice, very nice.
