Remarks

This boat has been well maintained, and appears to be in good order. She has only had 2 owners from new, and all manuals and her original paperwork are included in the sale. Her first owner converted her to a cutter rig (sails still available, but currently not used) and sailed her extensively along the East and South coast. Her current owners have owned her for approximately 3 years, and are selling her due to a change of plans. She has recently had her hull painted (deck, cabin and cockpit are still original gelcoat apart from non-slip areas), and she was antifouled prior to being put back in the water this season. Her woodwork could do with a little re-varnishing in places, but apart from that, she looks to be in very good order.
