Gumnut is a very nice Fibreglass H28 Ketch. She recently had $18,000 spent on a professional repaint and was antifouled in June 2024. Motor is a 2005 Kubota 20hp with approximately 600 hours. A fibreglass build with modern electronics she is ready to enjoy today.
The H28 has beautiful lines and has a lovely classical look. Moored at Blairgowrie in the well sort after Cameron's Bight, on going use of mooring is possible or purchase at below market rate as an all in package deal.
She comes with 2 Mainsails, Headsail, Spinnaker and a couple of Storm Sails. Flying 4 sails at once on a beautiful summers day is a sight to behold. With modern Navigation equipment, a new still in box auto helm, cruising local waters in safety should be a breeze.
Gumnut has a full length keel making her super stable.
This is a yacht to fall in love with and super cost effective to run and keep.
