She has been extensively upgraded and well-maintained, making her a reliable and comfortable cruiser. The GRP hull and cast iron fin keel provide strength and stability, while the refurbished teak decks (2021) Powered by a Volvo Penta MD2003 with new engine mounts (2022) and a replacement saildrive seal (2023), she delivers dependable performance under power.
