REMARKS
"Stickleback" was purchased by her present owner in 2019, his sixth yacht. He purchased the Parker Super Seal to sail short handed, having raced with crews in past boats. He has not been disappointed with the sailing performance, she's been sailed on the East Coast for local cruising and a number of passage races, where she has performed well. She's been much upgraded since 2019 and is reluctantly for sale.
