REMARKS
"Sanderling" was purchased by her present owners in 2007, she has provided many happy trips since then, performing well in rallies and coastal cruising on the Essex and Suffolk coasts. Thanks to her self tacking jib, she is easy for a couple to sail but roomy enough for 4 adults to stay on board for a weeks cruise or up to six for a weekend trip or rally. Her owners sail another boat in Scotland so "Sanderling" has only has light use over the years. Her owners have downsized to a smaller motor sailer.
