The M29 evolved from the success of her larger sister, the M36 Daysailer. Keeping the combination of stunning traditional aesthetics with modern naval architecture and materials, the M29 further simplifies the sail handling and provides a tiller for ultimate feel under sail. Sail handling is easy with a self-tacking jib with all control lines led back to the cockpit. Clever use of block and tackles under deck provide mechanical advantage, allowing the elimination of winches, resulting in a clean and simple layout. Underway, the modified fin keel with bulb and carbon spade rudder produce nimble and lively performance under sail or motor.
RED SKY is a beautiful example of the M29 and has been carefully maintained by her original owner. She was tastefully customized and has been sailed in fresh water since new. An included custom trailer simplifies transport and storage.
