1982 Custom SKYE 51
This is a very nicely maintained and consistently updated Skye 51. She had a major refit in 2001/2002 and has been continually updated since. Her owner has sailed her extensively and she is equipped to go anywhere.
If you are in search of a world wide cruising boat at a very reasonable price, then Montauk Light should be at the top of your list. Just hauled for the winter, she is easily accessible for viewing.
