She has been on the hard since 2007 and subsequently has some sun and weather wear and tear. She remains structurally sound and could be sailed as is. However with some topside work, front hatch repair, rub-rail repair, complete paint and woodwork refinishing she could be restored to her original beauty. The interior has remained dry and is without mildew or mold.
