Broker's Comments
This must be one of the nicest 500's on the market. She has the improved 501 interior, which makes life below decks more comfortable.
The Trapper, and especially this boat, will suit anyone who is looking to build up their experience before moving on to more challenging passages. This boat was built for the 1979 Fastnet; it did not finish, but did survive.
This boats has lots of nice features and extras that make her a very nice package. If you are looking for a coastal cruiser, for single handed or family and friends sailing, this has to be considered.
Cruise the summer away with this stylish and capable yacht, the memories will last forever.
