Dudley Dix Mini Cruise Transat

2013 Dudley Dix Mini Cruise Transat, meticulously constructed by a master boatbuilder throughout an extensive 4-year building process. This vessel has demonstrated its exceptional seaworthiness through two successful voyages across the Bay of Biscay to the Azores, as well as two impressive single-handed Atlantic crossings. Notably, the cockpit has been thoughtfully modified, providing a significantly broader work space and enhanced comfort. Included with the boat is a comprehensive navigational inventory, solar panel, a complete sail wardrobe, newly installed running and standing rigging (2023) and more. This rare and sturdy pocket cruiser is currently lying in Mylor, U.K., available for viewing.
