This boat is a decent racer. It has been on Lake Lewisville at the Dallas Corinthian Yacht Club since 2009, raced regularly with good success, after a long racing career at Rush Creek Yacht Club at Lake Ray Hubbard. It is perfect for any kind of sailing: nimble, responsive to trimming, but also very stable. I never had any moment of doubt in high winds. It is also a fun cruiser for sunset sails and even allows for a comfortable overnight stay in the cabin for up to four people. It’s also a perfect boat to learn sailing skills since it moves smoothly and reacts immediately to rudder input and sail trim which provides confidence.
I took well care of it for 16 years. It is sailable today and ready for racing as is, but could use some cleaning, deck work, and cosmetic work. It is structurally solid, has new stringers, and a very straight and firm keel. It is sitting on a hydrohoist and has a clean bottom and rudder (except for the last 6 inches of the keel which is in the water. It comes with a Tohatsu 6 hp outboard. I always sailed it in and out of the slip, so I barely used the engine which does not have a title. The boat title is clear and in my name.
A trailer is included, but will need new tires if pulled for a long distance. I barely used it, only for occasional dry storage on the DCYC grounds.
It breaks my heart to sell but my health does not allow me to keep it, so I must part with it. It feels like a member of the family that has never left me stranded in any way.
