Broker's Comments
A fast cruiser/racer from the early eighties with the build quality for which Butler Mouldings of Swansea are justly famous. Well fitted out below with some recent gear, rigging (2005) and a 4 year old fore-sail she only requires a little tlc to bring her up to standard. She is apparently ready to launch and sail as she is. Her refit can be carried out as winter maintenance, when her owner sees fit and as he/she finds the time.
