After a lot of thought, we've decided to move up to a much larger cruising sailboat so our family can begin longer adventures together. We purchased Prairie last spring because she's widely regarded as one of the finest pocket cruisers ever built, and she has exceeded every expectation. She sails beautifully, inspires confidence, and is one of those boats that always draws compliments in the marina.
This is not a project boat. It has been completely rebuilt and and is ready to enjoy immediately. It's previous owner won awards for his restoration work on the the boat.

The only cosmetic item I'd point out is that some exterior brightwork is ready for fresh varnish. The boat presents very well otherwise. |
