She is a beautiful solid cruiser with very traditional Chinese balanced lug sails. Designer or builder not mentioned. Which coast of Mexico is she lying? It makes a huge difference in marketing her. Please see others 'presentation' of their beloved sailing-homes. Need more internals and ultimately a schedule of equipment. Being steel, she will need internal survey of awkward spaces and thru-hulls. I would love to see her in Bermuda where I live. How can we request more info if email not given? Best wishes for your return to 'Bella Via' in November.
