Owner's Comment
The sails condition is unknown but are said to be well-used and will need to be replaced eventually. A smile on the forward edge of the keel should be looked at. TLC needed overallThe cabin could use some wood work as water intrusion is apparentPrevious owner reports the engine needs repair
