Hydroflow

HydrowflowLAUNCHED 1995
Commissioned by Ron Brittain an Auckland businessman, the design brief for this Elliott 50 was for an all round performance yacht with light wind sailing emphasis. "Hydroflow" has scored an impressive list of results for a 49 footer. Regularly competing against, and often beating much larger yachts. This power packed machine has humbled many in local and overseas events. Sold in 2007 and renamed Upshot.
