1995 Little Harbor 51 Pilothouse

Vineyard Haven, Massachusetts

$420,000

"Tumblehome" is a lovely example of the classic Ted Hood designed Little Harbor 51. She is the pilot house version that offers, in my opinion, one of the most secure cockpit arrangements I've seen on any sailing yacht.. She has been updated regularly, most recent is a new main engine (242hours), new mainsail and genoa as well as a new wind generator. She i presently in the water and ready to sail.
