Much thought went into making this vessel as strong and practical as possible - to absorb the punishment of high volume day charter business, to minimize down time - to be easily sailed, with short handed crew - and to sail off of the beach, if required.
Pricing reflects the vessel, as specified herein. However, the vessels are built to order - so customization is expected - and priced accordingly.
