Description

Small sailing yacht, 6.5m long. Dudley Dix Cruise-Mini, with a lifting keel and reduced rig as well as more head-room. This is a cruising version of the Dudley Dix Mini Mk2. It is a small performance cruiser in the image of the Mini 650 trans-Atlantic racers.
These are speedy small cruising yachts with delightful manners. They handle beautifully, carry their rigs very well and sail high and fast.
This is a complete boat with all hard-ware and sails, ready for coastal cruising. The lifting bulb keel and twin rudders will get her into shallow anchorages that are inaccessible to larger or deeper-draught boats. It is ready for sailing but the inside is a project if you want to enjoy more comfort.

The boat was purchased in 2014 from the Hamble Yard of Boatshed and has been stored indoors in a shed since then whilst work has been carried out on her.
The boat has a trailer which is suitable for long journeys, this would come at an additional cost of £2000.
