1987 Precision Precision 23,Designed by Jim Taylor, the Precision 23 is easily trailer launched and retrieved, yet is big enough for short cruises with long berths (sleeps 5) and ample storage below in a very attractive setting. Taylor emphasizes sailing performance with all Precision models. Her tall mast has a fractional sail plan for easy headsail handling. The shrouds are located inboard for a tighter sheeting angle and for walking about the deck with ease. The keel has internal lead ballast within the fiberglass hull and there is a centerboard controlled by a simple rope to offer nice windward performance. It is perhaps the best configuration for a good combination of trailerability, ramp launching and retrieving and stability maintaining self-righting whether the board is up or down. The owner says the outboard runs like a top without skipping a beat. $6000
