Broker's Comments
Preliminary Details: awaiting confirmation by owner.
See "more photos" to view 43 internal and external photos of this vessel.
The Starflash provides that transition of cruiser to racer, with her speed of sailing comes a boat that you could do short cruises on (longer for the hardcore) with enjoyment and confidence. Would benefit from a bit of elbow grease and enthusiasm to interior. She is undergoing improvements as you read!
