Very Famous ex cray boat built from Iron Bark Spotted gum and celery decks. Gardner 6lx with twin disc. Recently sailed from mainland to Tasmania trouble free
It's hard to describe how tuff the timber is very little soft timber hard as nails bulwarks hull and even the cabin has survived in good nick. She has been used and abused as a commercial fishing boat but is ideally placed as a leisure craft. I bought it to be my last cruiser but have to change course. Has just had new rudder fitted anti fouled and topsides painted. Tanks hydraulics are all good. Radar depth auto pilot gps radios all work well. Only been out of survey a year or two. Good cheap boat just need some love and attention. Hull is very sound. Cruises at 8 knots very economically. Used on 6 lph on way home
Happy to deliver to mainland for a fee. Will miss this old girl
