Lawrence). Long keel. Sails cleaned 2022. Running rigging renewed 2023.

Insurance survey 5 April 2022 by AC Yacht & Boat Surveyors: condition
“reasonable”. Hull now needs attention: it has been suggested to strip off all
paint, possibly renew some skin timbers, inspect/renew caulking and stopping.
Mainsail luff needs repair to luff (cringles etc.).
Trailer OK for yard work, not for highway.

She's now out of the water for winter and the Owner is very open to offers!
