Sailboat Lightning Classic

Description

Lightning # 7782 “Glo” is for “sail”.

I have owned and cared for “Glo” for 20 years now. I sail her often on St Joseph sound near Palm Harbor on the west coast of Florida and she is in very good condition with two sets of sails along with a spinnaker and pole. Her spruce spars have been refinished each year w spar varnish as are her solid mahogany bench seats, cockpit combings and splash boards. She has several new frames and comes with a sunbrella cockpit and tiller cover. Her standing and running rigging is new to excellent and she also comes with a 2.5 hp Merc w low hrs. which runs great. This past year, I fabricated a new Rudder made up of solid mahogany (see pic) She’s a classic beauty, fun to sail and her large cockpit can comfortably hold four. Glo is ready to go! Trailer not included. Any questions, please call Kevin (215) 530-4221.
