Broker Remarks
This Trapper 500 has been in the same ownership for 20 years and has been maintained to a high standard, she boasts a Yanmar 2GM engine which was new in 2004 and regularly maintained. She has had a new mainsail from 2021 which has very little use due to the pandemic.
Owners Remarks:
I have sailed Riff Raff very enjoyably and comfortably, mostly day sailing from Plymouth with some weekends and weeks cruising on the South coast between Brixham and Falmouth. For her size, I found her a nippy sailor and seaworthy - though never tested in heavy weather.
