This 70-year-old
classic motorsailer is in very good condition. Her wheelhouse, skylights,
companionways and cabin posts are teak as is the double-planked
transom. The interior of the wheelhouse is sheathed in varnished
teak and the fact that she is a Hodgdon boat contributes to her
longevity.
She sleeps up to ten people comfortably. She is quiet. At full
speed the engine is more a rumble than a roar. She has wide unencumbered
teak decks and is built to take to sea.
