A unique 16ft keelboat, with two seats in fore/aft position. Helmed by steering wheel from rear seat. Headsail is on self tacker or with jib sheets. Has large Code0 and Asymmetric on extending bow sprit. Has TACKTICK depth/sound/timer. Very rare, only thought to be three in the UK. Has trailer which is both for launching and transporting. Has two covers for boat when rigged, one set for transportation including full hull covers. In 2021 there was a re-newing of all sheets and halyards by Solent Boat Works. Previous owner is able bodied and current owner is paralysed from the chest down, so boat can be sailed by just about anyone with physical disability. Exciting to sail and won't capsize due to keel weight. Now covered and on trailer in Portchester, Hampshire. Ready for new owner. Only selling as have moved up in size due to kids wanting to come sailing.
