2020 June, from Facebook, Enid Marshall "Concorde is my husbands boat. It’s definitely not rotting away as it’s all carbon and is very soon to be united with a new carbon mast imported from Sweden. The demise of the old mast and some family illness led to some sad time on her trailer. Soon off to a barn for some love and 2021 HTC prep. For those interested she is an Andrieu 89 one of the last ever halftonners built and a previous Figaro winner."

October, Half Ton Class Europe website, FOR SALE: FRA 9292 CONCORDE (ANDRIEU 1989) Concorde is a late model Daniel Andrieu design from 1989 that was built for Alain Gautier at the B&B yard in La Trinité-sur-Mer. Concorde was built without any budget considerations of carbon and titanium and is extremely light displacement 2nnn with 2nn internal ballast. Concorde has always been a fast yacht as she was 2nd at the HTC in Le Havre (1989), and also won Le Figaro in that same year. Since the start of the HTCC Concorde has always been top 10, and this year at Hankø Norway we managed a 4th out of 35 entries. The yacht is still in it’s original IOR configuration apart from a change to a Mark Mills IRC keel. Current IRC rating is 0.959. For this year's HTCC at Hankø, all running rigging, sheets/guys and trim lines have been upgraded to Liros spectra cordage, a new set set of Raymarine instruments with 2x maxi mast displays has been installed. The hull and appendages have been sanded down and gone over with Nautix A4 T-speed which has been wet sanded with 400-800. All winches and blocks have been pulled apart and serviced. The cabin top winch has been replaced with a new Harken self-tailing equivalent. The hull has been polished and the deck sanded down and re-sprayed. A purpose built road legal trailer is included in the sale. An additional non-used carbon fiber mast section may also follow the yacht if relevant. Sail Inventory: 2023 Carbon Membrane Heavy #1, Carbon Membrane #3 Jib, S2 Spinnaker 0.6oz, All other sails from 2017 North Sails, for training only. Lying in southern Norway,Asking price: 36.000 Euros, Concorde will travel to the next HTCC in Nieuwpoort (Belgium), and will be available for sale before/after the championship.
