Description
1982 Ohlson 38 "MANUTARA" is ready for her new owner and new adventures. She can take you anywhere - but is in need of good refit after a period stored ashore.
She represents a great opportunity for someone. In her time the Ohlson 38 was a game changer in many ways. The design became a racing legend and is known for her excellent sailing characteristics and performance in a wide range of conditions.
Her name derives from the Polynesian for spirit bird - and a far ranging tern - and an ancient symbol for the bird-man cult.
