This is a beautifully maintained and full time lived on example of this classic spacious hardy blue water cruising boat.
She is charming and well appointed, with plenty of head room, beamy living space, a large drop down saloon table, with U shaped seating to port, and a long fore aft full length sofa to starboard. She has a double bunk aft of the Navigation station to Starboard, and a u shaped galley, with full amenities inclusive of gimbled oven to port. Plenty of space through out, and enough lengthy berth space to sleep 7 people! The Vberth is forward of the port side head/ shower. Her cockpit space is large, and she is easily single handed. She has a new genoa, new anchor chain, new solar panels, new outboard and has been consistently and lovingly attended to as per her needs by her full time live aboard owner. The engine is well maintained with a full service record.
An utterly charming boat which is ready to go and fully equipped for an ocean crossing.
