Owner's Comments
We are sad to sell this good boat. She was ready to sail to Panama and then Pacific last February and Covid changed everything. She has been our home for almost 5 years. A good, strong boat. Crossed the Atlantic and sailed the Caribbean. We need to sell her fast due personal issues and we will leave many things on board.
