There has been a professional repair undertaken at the bow which was advised in the survey in 2016, with receipts and photos. We have opened up the floor of the cabin at base of the pole for a necessary repair which has been completed.

This could be covered for aesthetic reasons, but we sailed it without doing this last year. Viewing recommended, please arrange to view the boat before bidding and message me if have any questions. Sold as seen. You will need to be able to tow the boat away yourself.
