Broker Comments and Disclaimer

Luthien has sailed much of her life in fresh water on Lake Champlain. The current owners are believed the fourth. These owners had a plan to find a boat suitable for a double-handed trans-Atlantic triangle. This center cockpit Jeanneau provided exactly the right layout and rig and was a great sea boat and a size for two people to manage by themselves. They outfitted with ocean self-steering and other safety gear and succeeded in their great adventure. Now they are back to work and it's your turn. Give me a call and make your cruising dreams a reality.
