Professionally built steel mono hull yacht. Meticulously maintained. All work done to an exceptionally high standard. This is a true blue water cruising vessel. With a few exceptions all electronics are newer than 2010 (chart plotter and radar 2013). Exceptionally strong sails and rigging that is 6 years old, most of which uses swageless Staloc terminals. The strong wing keel makes the boat ideal for shallow areas like the intracoastal waterways and Bahamas. The boat is strong enough to handle almost anything. The boat includes broad band internet through Inmarsat. Lifelines are completely netted making it child and dog friendly.
