Ericson 34T - Kraken

Meet Kraken, a legendary vessel with a storied past. Formerly known as Firecracker, she dominated the racing scene in the 80s and 90s, leaving a trail of victories in her wake. Renowned for her speed and agility, Firecracker clinched the division title in the prestigious Chicago Mackinac race and claimed victory in the esteemed Lady Skipper series. With an impressive record of 17 appearances in the Mackinac race, she became a symbol of excellence in competitive sailing.

Over the years, Firecracker underwent transformations under different ownership, culminating in her rebirth as Kraken. In 2022, she found her way into the capable hands of her current owner, Nick Drake, who seeks to reignite her racing spirit and relive her glory days of triumph. With a blend of nostalgia and ambition, Kraken sets sail once again, poised to reclaim her status as a champion of the seas.
