Enchantress was designed and built by her owner being launched in 1983. She was raced locally with great success. The construction is west system with triple diagonal 4mm cedar over laminated frames and stringers. In 2010 she won all divisions of the Melbourne to Hobart west coaster except line honours. She has competed in 6 Sydney Hobart races and 2 Melbourne Hobarts with many seasons of offshore and local sailing including 25 or so Adelaide Lincoln races. She is light and easily raced and cruised either short handed or fully crewed. I am regretfully listing her for sale as age and enthusiasm is affecting me.
