Remarks

The Pegasus 800 remains an ever popular Broads and coastal sailing cruiser/racer. This well equipped example is a very desirable wing keel, fractional rig version, making her ideal for Broads sailing. She was the subject of a large number of upgrades and works in late 2016 (totalling some £5,000) when purchased by the current owner, and she is now offered for sale as the vendor has decided that a daysailer better suits his current needs. Priced for a quick sale!
