Specifications

History and Overview

The original owner purchased her, kept her on the Great Lakes, and stored her indoors over the winter months.  In 1997 he did a major refit including painting the hull.  In 2005 the current owners purchased her while she was on Lake Michigan and sailed her to Kentucky and on to Punta Gorda, Florida.  Next was Belize and back to Kentucky.  Then in 2006 she returned to Belize, Honduras, and Guatemala, where she had her bottom painted.  Stops in 2007 included Honduras, Panama, Columbia, Aruba, Bonaire, and Curacao,Venezuela, back to the ABC's then Columbia, Panama, and Honduras. She sailed from the Rio Dulce, Guatemala to Punta Gorda, Florida in 4.5 days - almost 800 miles. After a sabbatical she sailed to the Chesapeake in 2010 and is now back in Florida.  During that time her owners made many improvements on her and maintained her very well.  By looking at her you would not suspect the miles she has traveled.  New Epoxy Barrier Coat and Bottom Paint in May 2012.  She looks like she is ready to go and is truly ‘turn key’ .
