Description
First built in 1928 by Knutson Shipbuilding Corp, the Manhasset Bay One Design is the second oldest one design fleet on Long Island. Known for their good sailing characteristics with a low righting capability, it is understandable why these boats are still relevant today.
Owned by a retired industry professional that managed high end yachts, Gala is arguably one of the nicest examples of this well-respected design. Stored inside on her trailer this boat is ready for this coming season.
