Comments:
Vagabond is a true cruising catamaran in the
British tradition, strongly built, comfortable and capable on most Points of
sail. She is very comfortable for a small family. Her interior features an
excellent forward cabin,practical galley and a light livable salon area. The
large cockpit is a definitely a plus for island cruising. Her shallow draft
allows anchoring in areas larger boats cannot reach. She has the room of a 35’
monohull. Vagabond has been lovingly cared for and upgraded by the owners and is
now ready for bay, coastal or long Distance cruising. Vagabond has recently
returned from a Bahamas cruise and is ready to go again.
