Geofon is a fast and comfortable cruiser, equally happy around the cans or setting off to the summer climes. She is very nicely set up for short handed sailing with a versatile sail plan. The current owner has carried out some major maintenance work in 2021 such as an engine rebuild and sail drive seal replacement, to ensure that she is in ready to go condition! Prior to that, she has been maintained meticulously while in the water or has otherwise been stored ashore.

Owner's Remarks

I bought her in 2007. I have sailed and raced solo for most of the time and gradually upgraded her to extract better performance in the Solent, West Country, and Channel ports. Occasional family and friends sailing in the Solent. The Maxi gives comfort in port, easy boat handling and impeccable manners at sea in all weathers sailed.
