Sail wardrobe consists of a main sail and furling genoa still in crisp condition by Goacher Sails on a Plastimo 604S roller reefing system.
Spinnaker/Cruising Chute included.
Basic nav gear includes bulkhead compass, NASA log/depth/voltmeter and GPS repeater and DSC Marine VHF.
Powered by the very reliable Yanmar 1GM10 inboard diesel that runs like a sewing machine and is simple to start and maintain. Excellent access from the cabin and also from a hatch on the cockpit sole which provides easy access to the gearbox and shaft.
Good sized cockpit with plenty of locker space under the seats and a huge locker aft of the helm.
Being surprisingly heavy for its size and having a long keel, the Wing has a very sea-kindly motion and she holds her course well on all points of sail, taking anything the Irish Sea throws at you.
Currently ashore North Down.
