Great Family Fun

Sea N' Double is much more than just a fast sailboat...the Grandkids have spent endless hours fishing, swimming, snorkeling and plain just having FUN off the deck of this Stiletto. In the process of installing our new Yamaha 25 hp outboard which promises to get us to our destinations much quicker when the winds die down.....

Sea N' Double

John W. Hill...."Neuse River"....New Bern, NC

Pickup in Annapolis

This boat had apparently been sitting for many years at this boatyard. The boatyard sold it to a broker, who put it on ebay for about $3k and then we bought it recently for about $6k. Need new canopies, complete hull repaint, new sails and tramp, rudder repairs. Most parts were still there and in sound structural condition.
