The cruising version of the Devon Yawl- with same hull as the yawl and a cuddy cabin.

DD18
Devon Dayboat DD 18 for sale.
Sadly due to family commitments I have been unable to sail her for a good few years.
As a result she needs a bit of tidying prior to putting on the water.
All of the bottom boards apart from those in the cuddy need replacing (I have removed some as you can see in one of the pictures).
The external woodwork also needs sanding and varnishing.
She has a full set of sails, though some of these are a bit worn.
She comes with a decent modern trailer.

Location: South Devon.
