Comments

Very interesting boat, it is competitive, historical significant and an easy boat to sail. Suitable for club racing at a good level. A different take on the “Modern classic” and very attractively priced to sell. Current owner has original blue prints, many original photos and articles about the boats history. A model of Eun na mara is displayed at the Polly Woodside Maritime museum in Melbourne.
