- Red Sail 20


 

 

This vessel is available in two main versions, a Gaff rig cutter, essentially an open sailboat, and the 'Weekender' which has a cabin.


GAFF RIG CUTTER
 

With its hull based on the rugged and Denis Swire designed and well proven Treeve DS20 this craft is built for the romantic and provided everything from hard sailing to leisure cruising depending on your mood. There is plenty of room on board for family and friends to join in and enjoy traditional Gaff Rig sailing at its best.

 

WEEKENDER
 

Dreams can come true as you cruise the coasts and islands, explore forgotten creeks and backwaters and indulge in real like adventure with family and friends.

 

The masts may be stepped either through the deck to step on the hog in the traditional way or in the weekend layout on a tabernacle mounted above the deck. The sailing versions are steered by a traditional timber transom hung rudder. The forward cabin is large enough to accommodate four berths.

 

Discover at your leisure the experience of owning and sailing one of these unique red sailboats as you embark on the journey of tour dreams.

 

Based on the successful and proven DS20 hull this vessel incorporates the luxury and convenience of 4 berth accommodation.
