Sonata 8 Drop Keel
Classic TOTALLY FLEXIBLE 8 meter yacht which can be used for multiple purposes wherever you choose. YOU ARE NOT LOCKED INTO ONE LOCATION / AREA TO USE YOUR BOAT AND RAISABLE KEEL MEANS YOU CAN ENTER SHALLOWER WATERS THAT ONLY A FIXED KEEL OWNER COULD DREAM OF. The previous owner told me this was a highly competitive reacing craft at Queenscliffe and MUCH MORE.
Fully overhauled recently with newly repainted HULL, ANTI FOULING and DECK. Upgraded electricals with new light weight LITHIUM BATTERIES and constant SOLAR RECHARGING.
Along with all the usual Sonata Equipment included is EPIRB, Raymarine DEPTH and SPEED sounders and TACKTIC. All displays are in a FULLY MOUNTABLE DECK MONITOR with COMPASS ALL CLEARLY DISPLAYED.
Sails are a full wardrobe including Kevlar Genoa and Jib and Profurler furler and Furl sail with battened Main and Spinnaker. Sail use is dependant on use as either moored or trailed boat. Motor is a 15 HP Mercury fully updated and overhauled.
Onboard toilet as well as water storeage as required
