This sailboat, first put into production in 1973, is still popular with people who want a comfortable, safe, steady cruiser with a large interior layout (almost 7 ft of head room) capable of blue water sailing, coastal cruising, and island hopping. She has an easy to handle sloop rig, with a shoal draft, and a 50 HP Perkins diesel engine. This sailboat has a lot of deck space topside and excellent living/storage space below--plenty of room to comfortably accommodate 5 overnight. This is a stiff boat. No soft spots. Ideal boat for Florida and the Bahamas.
