"Hindsight" (ex Polar Bear) is the joint creation of naval architect Philippe Briand and interior designer Andrew Winch, built as Winch's own personal yacht. The partnership pairs Briand's modern hull – which incorporates a hard chine for increased speed, stability, and interior volume – with Winch's superyacht-level interior styling, elegant lines, and timeless proportions.
The design combines beautiful hull lines with a powerful sailing rig, a comfortable cockpit, and a gorgeous interior. Hindsight carries all the gear needed for serious off-the-grid sailing and world cruising, and with twin helms, push-button sail controls, and electric furling throughout, she is easy to handle short-handed or as a couple.
Hindsight's interior features four staterooms plus forward crew's quarters, and a state-of-the-art galley conveniently located to port just aft of the main salon. She is powered by a Volvo D4 diesel producing 180 horsepower for a cruising speed of 9+ knots, backed by a 17.5 kW Onan generator that runs every system aboard.

BROKER’S COMMENTS
Hindsight offers a rare opportunity to own a custom Jeanneau 64 designed by and for Andrew Winch himself, with numerous options not always found on other sisterships. From her fresh paint work and full teak decks to her spectacular cockpit, comfortable interior, and easy short-handed sailing ability, Hindsight belongs on any serious buyer's short list.
The current owner has changed his cruising plans and is offering the boat well under market at $750,000 USD. Hindsight is lying at the IGY Marina in Rodney Bay, St. Lucia.
