Description

A blue water cruising boat designed by Bill Dixon and built in the Tashing boat yard in Taiwan in 1998. Cutter rigged with running back stays, roller reefing main, roller reefing staysail, roller reefing genoa and a cruising chute (which we use regularly). 6 berths in 3 cabins, 2 heads with separate shower cubicles. Good sized galley. Water maker and generator. She is a pleasure to sail and my partner and I find we can comfortably sail her short handed.
