General condition and any additional information

The Rob Roy 23 is a canoe yawl cruiser for two that has a true "small ship" look and feel. Construction quality is excellent with hand-laid, balsa-cored hull and deck (solid glass in high-stress areas). Extensive use of solid teak for rubrail, deck mounts, bowsprit and boomkin, and below. Solid bronze opening ports and deck hardware. Three original tanbark (red) sails in very good condition, two spinnakers (one doubles as mizzen staysail). Many new items and upgrades. Has been extensively sailed in San Diego and Mobile Bays. Trailer has twice been to California and back, hasn't been in the water since all new, axels-down rebuild in 2007. Owners are moving up to a larger boat for more extensive cruising.
