In Festival Boats, Festival Boats 2024

Built In Port Hadlock and launched in 1983. She’s an Atkins design. Sailed to Hawaii and back by the owner builder. The next owner raced her in many ancient mariner races. I purchased the boat in 2015. I had her on the hard for two 2 years. She planked with fir. on oak frames. During that time I repowered her with a new beta 3 cylinder 25 hp. diesel. she was refastened ( bronze). Recaulked from garboard to sheer plank. All the standing rigging was replaced with hand spliced galvanized wire and served. The electrical is all new including the panel. She has 2 mainsails, one newer. She has a selection of 6 different jibs. A monitor wind vane, 2 dodgers and a couple covers.
