Broker's Comments
This Achilles is a little gem.
An ideal starter cruiser/racer with a "cosy feel" saloon.
A well equipped galley and plenty of stowage space.
The perfect weekender boat with the ability to be sailed single handed.
She won best in class in the 2006 RTI race and is only being sold as the present owner is retiring form boating.
Well worth a look if you are in the market for a bargain.
