Remarks
Ruby Star had such a nice line on her deck to hull using the raised teak toe rail I decided to leave all staunchions off.
These are included but not fitted.
After a number of Southern Ocean / Tasmanian and South Australian voyages, I have never had a MOB nor regretted not having the ugly hardware for safety rails etc.
The staunchions are available and included but no Pushpit / Pullpit.
When offshore it is a simple Jacklines rig and Clip on.
Ruby Star has been my dream boat since Bill Jones spent 3years building her for me.
She is an extremely sea worthy, easy to sale ocean or local cruiser.
Her beauty of solid teak and mahogany throughout is just as impressive today as the day she was launched.
