The custom horn (with its own air compressor!) is just one of the many upgrades featured throughout this exceptionally well-maintained vessel. Skipjack is ready to go having been recently hauled and serviced for the season. Bow and stern thrusters makes for easy maneuvering with the twin Mercruiser V-8 engines, and the custom stainless grab rail that runs the length of the full canvas enclosure makes going forward to the bow along the side decks safe and secure. Below decks the sheer size of the interior space and natural light is impressive, including the Sellers self declared “sunken living room” which converts into a large double bunk for guests or crew. Complete with built-in vacuum system and security system with camera monitoring, Skipjack is available to view by appointment.
A staysail is a type of sail on a sailboat that is set on a stay, or a support wire or rod that helps support the mast. A staysail can be found on the forward section of the boat, between the mast and the bow of the boat. Staysails are smaller than the main sail and can be triangular or jib-shaped. Depending on the design, the staysail can be attached to the stay with hanks or a furling system, which allows for easy deployment and stowing. A staysail can be used in various wind conditions and can be adjusted to provide more or less power depending on the wind speed and direction. Often, the staysail is used in combination with the main sail to optimize sail trim and help the boat sail more efficiently. Sailboats with staysails typically have a rigging plan that includes multiple stays or shrouds that provide support to the mast. This rigging is more complex than the simple fore-and-aft rigging found on smaller sailboats, but it allows for greater sail area and better performance in a wider range of wind conditions. #sailingexperience #sailinglife #sailingadventure
