Emerald Isle has been owned by the current owner for the last 15 years and lovingly maintained. She has seen many different oceans and many sea conditions and always brought her charges home safely. She is very sea kindly in rough weather and does remarkably well in light winds. Emerald Isle is comfortable cruising or living aboard and has generous storage capabilities as well as spacious room down below.
Well, the boat sold.
Thanks!
