Hull
and Deck
This is a ruggedly built vessel -
and well thought out for cruising. Her large aft deck is ideal for
setting up chairs and relaxing either underway or at a mooring. From the
aft deck is there is easy access to the swim platform.
Good walk around side decks make it
easy to move fore and aft, and her foredeck allows for
easy handling of lines or ground tackle.
The boat has a distinctive nautical
look with her functional Pilot house, well proportioned
Salon, and even a smoke stack ( non functional). Beautiful fore and aft pulpits add to
the Nautical flavor and provide a good measure of
safety.
The hull has a factory color molded
into the gel coat that avoids the scratches of boats with painted hulls.
She is designed for protected water
cruising or offshore passages,

Comments
This is a SALTY vessel with very
distinctive characteristics. She has an upright profile with plumb bow
and a well arranged interior, very suitable for the cruising couple. More than
just an eye catching design, she is well constructed and quite able to head
offshore for extended coastal cruising.
Construction is solid fiberglass,
and her full keel, semi-displacement hull features a rounded transom and wide 9
ft 6 in beam.
This was a popular vessel with a
production run of 172 boats, and is still an excellent choice today for the
cruiser looking for an economical - comfortable boat.
