Built to showcase the quality of craftsmanship and techniques used by the Jackson Yachts team, this is a rare opportunity to buy a new yacht of this size and quality, ready for immediate delivery. The builder has taken every opportunity to make this Dark Harbor (or Harbour, if you prefer!) 17.5 yacht as maintenance free as possible. With her trailer and easily handled size, she would make a great regatta attendee, as well as a very easy to live with daysailer or weekender. Featured in the March/April 2017 issue of Water Craft magazine.
