Text and pictures from previous ad

This is a genuine 24’ cruising sailboat that I have sailed up the Chesapeake to Washington DC for a year, then sailed back to Norfolk/Virginia Beach. It is outfitted for comfortable two and three night trips. Last summer I anchored in Smithfield for the night, opposite Norfolk Waterside twice, have taken her up the Dismal Swamp Canal from Elizabeth City, and spent overnight anchorages in the lower Chesapeake and Potomac River. She is specifically rigged for ease of sailing by one or two people -- she has a $1000 Harken roller-furler, unusual for a boat of her size, so changes of sail from larger to smaller as the wind picks up don't have to be made -- all you need to do is roll up the sail. She has a new $600 Raytheon auto-helm that will steer the boat by the magnetic compass while you relax or trim the sails. Most importantly, I replaced the Evinrude with a new $2000 9.9 Honda outboard specifically made with a longer shaft to drive sailboats. This engine has 50 hours on it, from my use last summer. She has a head (toilet) for the ladies that works perfectly. I will take you on a test sail and provide receipts for what I've done to her. This is a perfect cruising sailboat for two or three nights out on the Bay in the summer. With her board up, she draws only 3'. She has new and comfortable blue vinyl cushions, inside and out, for sleeping. Finally, this is a "coffee table" design by the famed marine architects Sparkman and Stephens -- a Yankee Dolphin 24. I wish I could find a way to keep her. One of the photos below shows the boat underway but no one in the cockpit; that's because if you look closely, there is a gray "arm" attached to the tiller, which is the Raytheon auto-helm, steering the boat while I am up at the bow taking the picture. Another picture shows us on the Pasquotank River coming up from Elizabeth City NC and heading into the Dismal Swamp Canal...

This boat is priced to sell. I will take you on a test sail and provide receipts for what I've done to her
