A classic shoal draft yacht from the board of the famous Maurice Griffiths. Safe, comfortable, easy to handle and cheap to maintain the Medusa appears to be a very sound coastal cruiser, well thought out in a "nuts and bolts" sort of way. This example benefitted, not too long ago, from a refit by a marine steel fabrication specialist and his approach to deck safety sets a standard that production builders would do well to copy.
Her roomy four berth cabin is light and airy with completely new windows and seals, and she boasts a large galley and separate heads compartment.
Furthermore, she benefits from a frugal diesel engine which will get you home when wind and tide conspire against you. I would consider her to be an ideal first yacht in which to "learn the ropes", or to introduce family and friends to the joys of sailing.
UPDATE: Keenly for sale with price reduced as her owner now has two yachts and that's one yacht too many!NOTE: the auxiliary outboard is not included in the sale.
These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
