We've owned her for five years, and she has taken us on many memorable trips to Cornwall, the West Coast of Scotland and the East Coast of England.

We've bought a bigger boat (a Cape Cutter 19) and need space.

We've improved her considerably over that time, and she's offered in a sailaway condition.
She will sleep four in what could be called basic camping-style accommodation, but for two adults, there is plenty of room for a weekend of sailing.
Twin lee boards, which are housed beneath the bunks, give a large cabin. 

These lee boards were removed, and their pins were replaced in April 2022 by Harry King in Chelmondiston.
A new outboard motor mount made from Iroko was also fitted.

The mainsail with two sets of reefing points was replaced in 2021.
The nearly new genoa was converted to a carbon fibre furling Aeroluff Spar system in 2021.
The spars were sanded back to bare wood and coated with Le Tonkinois in 2021.
The bulwarks were also sanded back and treated with Le Tonkinois, whilst the rubbing strakes were coated in Deks Olje D1.
Much of the running rigging and some blocks and cleats have been replaced since.

Her hull was blasted and copper coated in 2021 and her topsides were painted with Epifanes 2 part epoxy.
A new iroko tabernacle was also fitted.

A 20w solar panel, two USB sockets and a 38 amp hour Victron AGM battery make up the electrical system.

There is a 5kg Lewmar anchor with approximately 30m of rode and chain.

There is a manual bilge pump in starboard side lazarette.

Two 'Ram Mount' instrument mounting points are fitted to the bulkhead.

In 2020, we bought a custom-made Extreme Marine braked trailer with a lighting board, a flushing kit, and an unused spare wheel. This trailer has been serviced annually.

The inventory includes a sail and boom cover, mesh halyard bags, various fenders and mooring warps, the original mainsail, and a barely used topsail with yard arm.

I have thoroughly enjoyed your YouTube videos of adventures with Sea Jade and hope you will continue with your Cape Cutter. They appear to be very nice boats, I hope you have many more great adventures.
