Here we have a top notch yacht that sails well under all points of the wind, and the listing price has just been reduced dramatically to reflect the owners need to focus elsewhere, so the yacht is seriously for sale. Located here in SE Qld. Her intended design was as a fast cruising yacht and being a centreboard yacht, she is capable of getting into some of the tighter anchorages around our wonderful coastline. An easy boat to sail shorthanded or load a few crew on and chase the handicap wins. She has seen the benefit of some recent upgrades to accommodate the sellers thinking that he might like to try a few Wags.
She has Australian Registration for those looking to venture further afield.

Remarks

Current owner has held this well known vessel since conception and spent many years living aboard with partner, up and down our great coastline. By all accounts she sails to windward well and will out-preform most current production cruising yachts. The boat presents nicely topsides and is likewise below decks. Having held her title since the build, you can be assured there will be a lot of information available to her new owner, on Closing. She is a typical Adams with fairly fine lines and great sailing abilities if you like to push her along. Plenty of sail plans to chose from to keep you on your toes if you like to get a little competitive. Located in a marina here in Brisbane, we can get you aboard via appointment.
For inspections or further information, please contact Rob Devers on Email: , or Mob: as we will be delighted to assist.
