Designed for shorthanded offshore cruising, this classic ketch is ready for any adventure! Cardigan Bay has been a great companion for us as we made her our home over the last year. Since purchasing in 2022 we have sailed her from Melbourne to Nelson Bay enjoying the sites along the way. Her design is unique in many ways, our favourite feature has been the aft cabin with a double bed which is rarely seen on vessels this size. The hydraulic furling on the mainsail and all lines going to the cockpit make this a vessel that can be comfortably sailed by a couple or solo. This boat embodies simplicity of an older design with modern comforts like the brand new electrical system ready for off grid adventures!
