Major Price Reduction - Now Only $110,000!
A Proven Ocean Warrior - Are you ready to take Her for another Adventure

Unbreakable. Legendary. Purpose-Driven.
This isn’t just a sailboat - it’s a legacy. The Devonport Challenge 67, designed by David Thomas and built by Devonport Yachts (DML) to Bureau Veritas' highest standards, was born for one purpose: to sail around the world against the prevailing winds - strong, fast, and safe.

I AM OCEAN, hull # - , embodies this mission like few others can. With an epic pedigree of global circumnavigation, military sail training, and modern-day scientific expeditions, she’s now available at a rare price point of $110,000 - a serious opportunity for adventurers, researchers, or non-profits seeking a bulletproof expedition platform.

Highlights:

  • Designed for the BT Global Challenge - sailed "the wrong way" around the world

  • Steel-hulled, expedition-class yacht with robust, easy-to-maintain systems

  • Built for safety, comfort, and strength in the harshest ocean environments

  • Proven expedition vessel: used from 2017 - present for scientific missions

  • History of elite ownership: UK Ministry of Defense & Challenger LLC

  • Customizable interior layout - construction allows for simple modifications

  • Great Value: needs bottom job, rigging update, and remedial interior work to be in mission-ready condition.

Mission-Driven Legacy:

After a grueling global race, I AM OCEAN served the UK Ministry of Defense as a sail training vessel. She was then reborn in 2016 for a higher purpose - supporting two groundbreaking expeditions that brought the world’s attention to marine plastic pollution:

♻️ The Vortex Swim (2019)

A surface sampling expedition across the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, collecting critical data on microplastics in the North Pacific Gyre.

Built to Endure. Designed for Purpose.

  • Watertight compartments & robust construction

  • Ease of access for repairs and maintenance at sea

  • Expedition- systems, with storage, and range for long voyages
