Broker's Comments

The Achilles 24 is a small, popular, and durable cruiser-racer well noted for its seaworthiness. Designed by Oliver Lee, nearly 600 were being built between 1960 and 1980.
This particular 1973 example requires some work to bring her back up to scratch, though this has been reflected in the asking price. On a positive note the hull appears to be in good condition.
Please note this boat is sold without an engine and would require a long shafted outboard of between 5hp and 10hp.

Offers on the asking price may be considered.
