Re: kingfisher 20
Hi. I own a Kingfisher 20+of 1968 vintage "Antares" She is living out in Greece having been sailed there by her first owners in approx 1973.My wife Lesley and I live on her for extended holidays of 4 to 6 weeks at a time. My age is 61 and having owned numerous sailing cruisers of this size in my life I know of no better small cruiser, the kingfisher is very seaworthy stable and stong, this coupled with an interior layout that actually works,makes for a boat that inspires both confidence and safety. The Kingfisher is grossly underated, I can only assume this is because to most people the design is a tad stark and bland (not the appearance of yer average ocean greyhound) tho they do sail exceptionally well with no vices. Anyway enough of my waffling . I am more than happy to offer any advice, also look up The kingfisher owners association website. Very best regards Barry.
