Overview
This South African cat is one of the best! Outfitted extensively, import duty paid! Recently back from the Bahamas and totally ready to go again!
Current owners have outfitted her well and loved her, and are ready to sell after enjoying several seasons in the Bahamas aboard her. She is extremely clean and well maintained, and very comfortable. She has the feel of a much bigger cat!
