Achilles 9m plus- registered 1983, 'Sailing Bye of Mumbles'

She has the extended cabin roof forward of the mast, tripple keels, 13.5hp Yanmar inboard, can be rigged as cutter.

My wife and I purchased her in Feb2006, she had been ashore at Cardiff bay yatch club since Oct02 ?. We had her transported round by road and spent march-july06 working on her in the yard at Watchet.

This is my 4th cruising boat, have sailed as family and time allowed since 1963, started on the Menai Strate sailing dinghies.

Although still in my mid 50's was fortunate to be offered early retirement in the autumn of 06 and now work as a building services engineer when my services are required!!.

Have now sold Sailing Bye summer 2016 and purchased a Westerly Storm 'CHOICE' in December 2016, now moored in Penarth.
