SELLER DESCRIPTION

Lock Crowther designed this cold molded trimaran that rips along at 18 knots! Jim Logan of Coastal Marine in Venice, Florida was in constant contact with Crowther while he built Tern for his personal use. He zipped through the Gulf of Mexico to Key West and flashed all over the Abacos until he sold it to the curent owner.This is not a ride for the faint of heart. The owner says it's time to pass the thrills along to younger sailors with quicker reflexes. It's a zippy race boat but below decks it's a beautiful cruiser that's just been completely redone. Most of the sails are very lightly used and ready to rocket.
