Brokers Comments

"Louise" is a well maintained and equipped family cruiser.  She is clean, has new bottom paint and shows very well. The knowledgeable 2nd owners, (since 1997), have kept very good records, which are available along with her extensive manuals.  Owners do not have enough time to give her enough use so they have reluctantly put here up for sale.
