With a very relaxed sailing manner that instantly instils confidence in all, she is noticeably stable from the moment you step aboard making her an ideal boat even for the fainter hearted crew members.
A choice of layout can be chosen to provide either 4,5 or 6 berths offering total flexibility to owners, no matter what size of family/crew they need to accommodate. Built to individual bespoke requirements with an impressive range of extras.
A beautifully equipped yet functional galley includes a fridge, gimballed two burner cooker with oven and grill, roomy storage for all the necessaries and a sink with pressurised water system. A separate heads compartment contains a toilet and shower which makes living aboard for longer sea passages a more civilised experience.
The pivoting bowsprit helps with the lowering and raising of the mast but also can be raised whist docked which allows for lower berthing charges. A Yanmar 29hp inboard diesel engine provides more than enough power to provide outstanding performance.
If you have dreamt of the perfect gaff rigged cruising yacht, you have just found her!
