1983 SHANNON BOAT CO AEGEAN 51, Shannon Boat Company of Bristol, R.I. has an excellent reputation for building strong, comfortable, high quality, bluewater cruising yachts. The Nona Lee , a 1983 Aegean 51 pilothouse ketch is one of the few larger Shannons with the forward cockpit enclosure with 2nd steering position to reach the brokerage market. The Nona Lee's costly recent refit investment makes her an expecially attractive listing. Additions include a new 5 KW Westerbeke generator (only 140 hours), 4-236 Perkins diesel (440 total hours) with transmission, new sails, and recovered salon cushions,110 volt refrigeration, radar, AM/FM/CD, new batteries, four new fuel tanks with hoses and fittings and hydraulic backstay tensioner.;What sets the Shannon Aegean 51 apart from other cruising designs is her exceptional strength (sistership Shannons have made many successfully circumnavigations), quality workmanship, systems and hardware. Additional benefits are an exceptional center cockpit. The long, two level design is ideal for offshore sailing. There is a fixed enclosure over the forward position for steering in bad weather and standard second pedestal wheel open steering position is aft end of the cockpit.; The Nona Lee's ketch rig offers intracoastal bridge clearance for fixed bridges on the east coast inland waterway. The primary benefit of the split rig is more sail combinations (such as mizzen and headsail only for heavy winds) and lower profile sail for greater stability and sails with less sail area for easier shorthanded sailing. Shannons are ideal ocean passagemakers for a couple or family with a modern shoal draft keel 5'8 with board and fully protected skeg.;The classic varnished teak interior is balanced with white grooved headliner and white panels on the inside of the trunks and underdecks. The cabin sole is varnished teak with contrasting light inlay. | |||
