Previous Owner's Comments
This is a fabulous cruiser/racer that is great for a family and easily sailed short handed.
Performance on all points of sailing is excellent. Reef early to limit healing and maintain control, speed and direction. She is a very rewarding and responsive boat to sail. With a fully lifting keel she'll sit upright on the sand for great creek crawling or beach visits.
Lovely big cockpit with removable mainsheet. Kebony deck panels line the cockpit to provide a safe, attractive and warm feel. New headlinings have been installed throughout.
There are 3 x Genoas, 2 x main sails, cruising chute and storm jib (never used).
She performs very well with a quiet outboard with easy motor sailing on both tacks due to the ultra-long shaft.
