Remarks

This pretty little lugsail half decker is a mere 16ft 2in over deck, making her ideal for single or short handed sailing. With her easily managed balanced lugsail rig, designed and fitted by Jeckells just nine years ago, recent professionally restored decks and a 2016 galvanised road trailer, this delightful little half decker has much to offer! For sale due to a change of plans and the purchase of another boat.
