SHE 31 - FIN KEEL
One of the most successful and attractive Sparkman & Stephens designed half-ton production cruisers/ racers, the She 31 still offers excellent performance and useful accommodation. In many ways comparable to the Contessa 32’s, which are of the same era, they share the same virtues of excellent handling, all-weather performance, and high ultimate stability, as well as being exceptionally pretty.
