A new phase in life calls and OMURAMBA is ready for a new younger owner to continue to enjoy her. The Swan 43 known for ocean racing back in its day she is set up for cruising with a swept fin keel, a skeg hung rudder well aft and a hull design that is sea worthy and sea kindly. Boats built in the late sixtes early seventies were extremely overbuilt by modern standards.

A new Volvo Penta 50 HP diesel inboard motor with all new drive components and maxi prop was installed in 2016 that has 350 hours on it. She has a nice complement of marine electronics, an Aries self steering wind vane, an Airex wind generator system and a recent canvas dodger not to mention a new fore and head stay this past season for precautionary measure.
