Broker's Comments
Successful racing history and still competetive today. The varnish work is a credit to the owner and the overall condition of the boat is above average for the age, with a few marks as one would expect from a boat that is used competitively today. Available now for someone wanting a performance racer/cruiser at sensible money I would strongly urge a visit to view her.
