Description
PRICE LOWERED FOR END OF SEASON - GREAT OPPORTUNITY...
The Vineyard Vixen 29 is a stout, sweet-sailing double-ender built on Martha's Vineyard. The design is inspired by L.
Francis Herreshoff's Rozinante design, but with a split underbody to improve performance, and additional interior
space for more headroom and comfort. The result is a gorgeous sailing boat, suitable for day-sailing, weekending
and short cruises, and one that will garner admiration in any harbor.
Imagine has been thoroughly updated from engine to deck, rigging, tanks, cushions and more. Please review Full
Specifications for a complete list of upgrades and improvements.
