The Cape Cutter 19 is a charming trailer-sailer with traditional lines and excellent seaworthiness for her size. Sabella is a lovely 2003 example which offers simple but cosy accommodation and is nicely set up for coastal cruising and exploring shallow estuaries. She has two new headsails and is presented in good condition with a road trailer. Viewing by appointment only through the Suffolkor email:
