The shallow draft of this boat allows exploring up rivers and bayous and peaceful, out-of-the way anchorages. I have single-handed this boat from Texas to the Chesapeake on a year-long voyage and participated in the Great Chesapeake Bay Schooner Race in 2007.
The boat attracts attention wherever she goes.
