Description
This is a strip planked long range cruising yacht with comfortable accommodation for up to 9 crew. Apart from the open plan living space there are 2 separate cabins. She has a large aft cockpit with plenty of lounging space and space below is enhanced by her generous beam. Cruising capability is enhanced by the use of a centreplate (although she could be altered to use a deeper fixed keel). At this stage full construction plans and details exist for the hull, deck, superstructure/cockpit, keel and rudder.
