The Precision 18 is 18 ft long with a wide 7.5 ft beam. It weighs 1,100 lbs., of which 350 lbs. are ballast in the long stub keel. The boat drafts only 1.5 ft. A retractable centerboard increases the pointing ability and draft increases to 4.25 ft. Easily sailed singlehanded as all controls are led to cockpit. Extremely well-balanced and can literally be sailed with fingertips on the tiller. Roomy 6 ft long cockpit comfortably seats 4 adults. The cabin is also very roomy for a boat this size, as the mast doesn’t pass through into the cockpit, leaving it completely open. The full set of interior cushions are included, all in great condition. The original Igloo cooler with a teak top that doubles as the companionway step is in like new condition and also included. Sails (mainsail and 100% jib) are original but in very good condition. Newer 135% genoa and a spinnaker were added last season. The Honda 5HP outboard motor was obviously little used, as it looks like new, and runs great. Boat is in exceptional shape but for full disclosure has one issue where heavy rains cause some leakage into the boat. Have some suspects (windows, jib tracks, possibly under rubrail) but have not confirmed source. I have added a small electric pump to manually clear out the bilge.

Improvements to the hull, deck, rigging, engine, or interior

In 2022, a newer 135% genoa, and a symmetrical spinnaker (with new pole and rigging) were added to the sail inventory.
