This competitive, quarter ton yacht was built for the 1973 Quarter Ton Cup, in which she performed well. She has since been successfully raced at Scarborough Yacht Club and Royal Yorkshire Yacht Club, Bridlington. Her owner states that she performs exceedingly well upwind and in lighter airs. She is being sold with a 4 wheel road trailer and is ready to race! Lying ashore.
