Hunter Sonata ‘Kelpie’

About her

Sonatas are very popular racer-cruisers that continue to maintain their strong pedigree, with many sailing clubs adopting them as a one-design class, and most regattas including a Sonata start. ‘Kelpie’ is a great example of these popular boats, currently in working order and ready for a new lease of life.

The boat has been well maintained by its current owner, with any substantial boat work carried out by professionals. There are reportedly no repairs needed and she is watertight. She has been sailing well, and has done trips to Dartmouth and Dittisham from her current mooring near Exeter.

Location and collection

Kelpie is currently on a swinging mooring, but will need to be hauled out at the end of the month. This is usually done at a local boatyard, costing £100-120, and she is stored on stands over winter. There is no trailer included, and the new owner will have to make their own arrangements for the boat’s removal.
