Highlights & Features

Classic styling of this Floyd Ayers' designed Masthead Ketch is the perfect transition from a sailboat to a trawler. This comfortable classic is ready for new adventures! The vessel's teak deck was removed and a new core deck installed and transom rebuilt during major refit in 2017.
