RIG TYPE: Gaff

MAST/SPARS: Timber

SAILS: Main and self-tacking jib (about 2 years old)

EQUIPMENT: Internal: The boat has a lovely cockpit with seating and lockers to either side and also under the aft deck. Double doors lead into the cabin, where there is a sea-toilet to port and two full-length single berths. The cabin roof lifts horizontally giving about 4' 6" headroom throughout. External: The boat comes complete with warps and fenders plus mudweight and quant pole. She has an excellent canvas cover (with integral framed cockpit tent).

REMARKS: It is understood the boat was the subject of some renovation recently, and this is supported by her current condition. Running rigging appears to be virtually new. It is understood that the owner has a new Mercury 2 hp outboard which does not form part of the sale but which could be purchased by separate negotiation.

OUR OPINION: A nice example, well worth seeing if you are seeking a basic sailing cruiser.
