Owner's Comments
"As my sailing business grew, I needed another boat for added capacity and found this pretty little schooner in Florida. She was in rough shape and even infested with termites! After failed attempts to gas them out, we successfully eliminated them using an ozone machine.
Since then, I’ve replaced all damaged cabinetry with new mahogany and rebuilt every major system. She now sails beautifully and has been taking passengers on trips in Baltimore for two years, earning high praise.
Though I haven’t yet taken her on long voyages, she’s ready for adventure. This is a boat with a story, character, and a new lease on life—perfect for the next owner looking to sail something truly special."
