Description
Custom Re-Fit! Over 6' Headroom Below! Power Winch! Half-Dodger! Battenless Mainsail!

This custom sailer was professionally converted from an Atlantic City Cat in 2009. With a spacious 24' on deck and an 11-foot beam, she has plenty of room above for coastal cruising or entertaining. The cockpit can accommodate up to 8 people.

Below she has over 6 feet of headroom in the cabin making for comfortable quarters. There is a very comfortable settee with a table that converts to a double bunk. There is also a single berth starboard and a quarter berth double.

This vessel has been rehabbed. The original engine was replaced by a Volvo Penta MD 20-30 diesel and a large prop was installed to allow her to get up to 8 knots. There is a roomy head and galley with hot and cold pressured water.

She has been upgraded with updated electronics including a Garmin plotter and Raymarine autopilot. She can be steered under a dodger in wet or windy weather. A carbon fiber boom and gaff, plus a power winch and boom gallows make for easy rig handling. The added plank bowsprit with stainless steel pulpit and Spartan anchor roller makes for safety and comfort. She is also equipped with a roller furling jib.

She has everything needed for enjoyable sailing, entertaining, and cruising. She cruises comfortably under power, doing 6 knots at 2,700 RPM, and can do 8 knots in the 3,300 to 3,500 RPM range for a good bit.

Comfortable underway and at anchor, this 1980 O Donnell is the perfect boat for a day or weekend away.

While we will always attempt to provide you with a TRUE representation of every vessel we market, during any purchase from Pop you will be encouraged to schedule an inspection from an independent, accredited surveyor and every purchase WILL ALWAYS BE subject to your satisfaction with the results from your independent survey and your own personal trial run.

Condition:
Everything on this boat works as it should, the owner confirms. It will make a beautiful day sailer, weekender, or longer-range sailer for her next owners. Get ready to sail away today!
