Description
A trailer is included!
This boat is a proven racer with a long and successful history on Lake Lewisville at the Dallas Corinthian Yacht Club (since 2009) and previously at Rush Creek Yacht Club on Lake Ray Hubbard. It is agile, responsive, and fast — yet extremely stable. Even in high winds, the boat inspires full confidence.
This boat is a proven racer with a long and successful history on Lake Lewisville at the Dallas Corinthian Yacht Club (since 2009) and previously at Rush Creek Yacht Club on Lake Ray Hubbard. It is agile, responsive, and fast — yet extremely stable. Even in high winds, the boat inspires full confidence.
It’s also a fun and capable cruiser, perfect for sunset sails and comfortable overnight trips for up to four people. For learning sailors, the boat is excellent because it reacts quickly to rudder and trim inputs, making it a great platform to build strong sailing skills.
The boat has been carefully maintained for 16 years. It is fully sailable and race-ready as it sits today, though some cleaning, deck work, and cosmetic attention would improve it. Structurally, it is solid with new stringers and a straight, firm keel.
It currently sits on a HydroHoist with a clean bottom and rudder (only the lower 6 inches of the keel are in the water). A Tohatsu 6 hp outboard is included; it has very limited use since the owner usually sailed in and out of the slip. The outboard has no title. The boat title is clear and in the owner’s name.
The included trailer is functional but will need new tires for long-distance towing. It has mainly been used for occasional dry storage at DCYC.
The owner is selling the boat reluctantly due to health limitations. It has always been dependable and feels like a member of the family.
