Watusi (formally Haley Anne) has just come back in Febuary 2018 from 5 years of oversea’s cruising see ( sailingwatusi@blogspot.com ).She is a very well equipped, easy to sail fast cruiser built at great expense for the Melbourne Osaka race. She is light and immensely strong due to the very tough grade of alloy used in the hull construction. Boat has positive buoyancy when full of water! She is being sold only as the owners have a new slide on camper for land travel She has had many items checked or replaced.
Equipment stored off boat, set of teak steps to cockpit. Rain water catchment system, many spares
Recent changes to boat are;
Extra seven inches head room in heads plus hatch over heads
New raymarine wind instrument
Revised emergency tiller
Replaced steps into saloon to give easy access to starbord quarter berth
New anchor winch
New polycarbonate windows
Mounted compressor for fridge
All mast lines except genoa halyard and kicker lead back to cockpit making much easier and safer reefing
New hard dodger with grab rail
New and much larger fire extinguishers
All hatches re-mounted and properly waterproofed
Ventilation for engine compartment
White gel coat in anchor locker and laserette, means you can see what you are doing.
All electrical cables in anchor well and laserette enclosed
Led light over nav table
