IOR-style "racer-cruiser" This is an exceptionally handsome boat Spartan, roomy, efficient interior, 6 ft headroom. Sleeps 8 PHRF is 93 Solid, strong hull mast and rigging allow for control of sail shape designer has been responsive to questions new upwind sails 2009 and 2010; less than two seasons on them...and they are great! This boat is NOT "tired", but it has gotten old, and will need ongoing TLC. Hence the low price. Here's a PDF with all the details Next Picture

A GREAT BOAT FOR THE RIGHT OWNER: This is a fast boat… as fast as you will ever get for the money. The boat is solid and strong, and can take whatever you throw at it. Very narrow sheeting base and an IOR hull. You will out-point just about everybody else, and still go fast. In most local fleets, you will be in A-class, and have a shot at winning. Sleeps 6, in comfort, in single bunks, with room for two more small people. Updated 3-battery electrical system 2010, with onboard charger Good performance-oriented instrumentation (Signet) It requires some skill to sail this boat fast, but with practice, it can win The new upwind sails are new and very fast. The 1/2 oz, 1.5 oz, and 2 oz spinnakers are in great shape BUT, THERE ARE A FEW THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE YOU CONSIDER THIS BOAT:  This a primarily a racing boat. Cruising amenities are limited, and separate cabins are not a feature. The head is functional, new, and easy to clean and work on, but has only partial privacy The keel is 2 degrees off plumb, and apparently always has been.  The designer says this is not a performance issue, and does not require fixing. The interior non-structural plywood had some rot when I bought it. It has been replaced with fully waterproofed voidless plywood, but it was an amateur job and looks it. Universal model 25 engine is reliable and tough as nails, but will need a new head gasket soon. The folding prop will need new bushings soon. The 3/4 oz is still fast, but rips too easily, and should be replaced soon.

SAILS NOTE: The boat has not been used since August 2010 Main.... UK 2010 new condition.  Two reefs #1.... UK 2009 excellent condition and very fast over 6 knots true. #3.... UK 2009 excellent condition and a race winner over 20 knots apparent Lt #1....North. Old and looks like crap, but it wins for us in 5-10 knots apparent Drifter.... very old but still good, fills in any wind whatsoever Storm jib.... rarely used, probably an original sail. 1/2 oz spinny ... has some moderate wear, but holds a good shape.  We pass well-sailed boats who owe us time with it. Just keep your AWA around 100. 3/4 oz spinny ... still fast in anything over 5 apparent and it can handle a reasonable amount of wind, but it has a lot of wear and really should be replaced 1.5 oz spinny ... a race winner.   2 oz storm spinny ... we've had the boat over 10 knots steady with this thing. also a few "delivery" sails
