Boat Details

Description

New Engine• New Rigging•

Practically restored. This 1978 Cape Dory is one of the absolute cleanest little 'world cruisers' I have seen. Standing as a testament to traditional boat building.
Shown By appointment only. Call or text Young at 8053404241 to set up a day and time to get on board and see for your self.  :) See list of upgrades below.

A Carl Alberg designs, offering a desired blend of performance and cruising capabilities.
With favorable formula's such as a capsize screening of 1.8, a comfort ratio of 32.2, she is compact, 
more than capable and comfortable for offshore passages and "blue water cruising."
Although no boat comes without its own 'project list,' this one will be a short, if at all for "necessities." The next items of attention for the current owner were to be putting attention on some accessories such as; installing solar, dinghy davits, ground tackle and auto helm. Don't let the year fool you. This Cape Dory is in excellent condition and ready to sail. Get a Boat! :)
