Current Owner's Experience

"HaulODay" is a well-equipped vessel that has met her current owner's desire for a spacious, easy-to-sail coastal cruiser. Her usage has been drama-free. The large cockpit is perfect for hosting several couples for an evening of chardonnay and brie or enjoying a BBQ on the gas grill up on deck.
