Broker's Comments
The Achilles 24 is well known for its safe seakeeping ability and smart performance. This particular one is well maintained and ready to sail away. Complete with a modern engine she is an ideal starter cruiser or long weekender. The many hundreds of these that were built attest to their popularity and success.
