Gatsby is one of the Express Yachting models, apparently the preferred builder over the Fairchild models for a better build quality.
If you are looking to turn heads with classic beauty on the water, this Scout 30, and therefore you, will be the center of attention wherever you are. Her narrow beam, fine lines, cream fiberglass hull, wooden trim and transom and large cockpit area meld into a cohesive eye-catching, classic look.
Her long hard top over the cockpit gives protection from the elements, as does the full, eisenglass enclosure. The solid teak binnacle, wheel and captain's chair are not only elegant, they are set well forward so voyaging is comfortable.
Gatsby has been meticulously maintained - she gleams, inside and out - and the next lucky owner will be able to start her up and take her away.The current owner took the boat down the ICW this last winter, so she can go places.
Don't miss out on this beauty!
