Designed for cruising/racing. Can make use of shallower mooring or trailed.
2019 had new vinyl moose lining and head lining, also new cushions ready for cruising.
There is also a teak table that can be placed in the saloon or stowed away unobtrusively.
The electrics have been wired for shore power.
A survey was carried out 2001 and concluded by saying The structural and general
improvements which have been carried out have clearly been the subject of much thought
and have added considerably to the overall strength and life expectancy. She can thus be
considered a very good example of this class.

Cradle purpose made, very strong and at a height that makes working on the bottom very comfortable.
Davit purpose made s/s for transferring the outboard to and from the cockpit locker and the outboard bracket. The davit is in 2 pieces, so the standing part is permanently fixed at pushpit height and lifting part slots into the standing part so it can swivel between the locker and the bracket. When not in use it stows neatly away with the outboard in the cockpit locker, thus avoiding heavy lifting.
