Broker's Comments
Contest 29's have a reputation for a sturdy build. This example does need some attention to bring her back to her original glory. Her owner has been spending time with another boat and feels she needs to go to a good home as time does not permit maintaining both. She's an excellent first time boat for someone who has the time and skills to refurbish and take on some maintenance. She'll suit a couple or small family for cruising and weekend getaways.
Photographed September 2015.
