Description

The MGC27 is a fast and agile cruiser from the board of Rob Humphreys, with a blend of responsiveness, easy handling and good manners that few can resist. The practical layout includes a separate heads aft, good sized galley and aft double cabin. 'Presto' is the lift keel version of the MGC27 making her ideal for exploring the East Coast rivers and utilising shallow/drying moorings, with the lifting keel reducing the draft from 5'10" to 3'2". She has been well maintained including new standing rigging in 2022 and the keel mechanism was overhauled in 2019.
