Broker's Comments
This is a lovely example of the twin-keel version of this very popular family cruiser, designed by Bill Dixon.
Ideal for creek crawling and coastal work for a family, she has 6 berths in two cabins plus two singles in the saloon.
The spacious saloon is complemented by a large aft cabin offering 6 berths in total.
This one has cabin heating and her sails were replaced on 2019.
She also has wheel steering. The owner reports that the wheel steering is very light, making her manoeuvrable and easy to handle.
Whether you are looking for a passage cruiser/ passage racer, family vessel, weekender, day cruiser or round the cans racer this one is worth considering.
These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
