English
A classic Maurice Griffiths cruising design, essentially a more modern Eventide, the Golden Hind 26 is a tough little shoal draught cruiser. This one has a steel hull, with long keel. The Golden Hind series of yachts were conceived as East Coast cruisers, but they have found their way to many parts of the world, with a very good reputation for seaworthiness.
Requiring a little attention to the steelwork, with a little elbow TARKA forms the basis of a very nice pocket cruiser
