Her galley which is under the port cockpit is good sized and very useable.

Owners Comment:
‘This boat is very satisfying to sail, reasonably fast with a dry comfortable motion I felt very safe when I single handed her across the N. Atlantic in 2010, direct N.Carolina to Scotland.
I had inetnded to keep her for further adventures but have decided to sell to free up funds so I can continue my sailing in a smaller craft.’
