Remarks :
Owner’s commentsSince I took ownership of the vessel in August 2008 I have worked on her extensively not only adding recent equipment but maintaining her to a high standard of sea worthiness.Don’t confuse her with the usual worn out stripped bare ex-club racers you may have seen, she is actually in very good cosmetic and mechanical order with a new engine, sails and comprehensive sail wardrobe. Brokers commentsA very comfortable racer/cruiser, beautifully equipped with thousands spent recently. Part exchange considered
