Boat's Description
Piver Nimble - this boat is probably the oldest Nimble in New Zealand. According to stories Dauntless was built in Seattle in the early 60s and sailed to NZ by an american couple. She reportedly crossed the Pacific a number of times and she still has the original mile log (Made in Seattle) with over 245,000 miles on the clock.
Special Features
Center cockpit with an aft cabin, Dauntless is in the process of a total refit with an aim to be back up and sailing in the summer of 2009.
I Love Boating Because.........
there's nothing like living on a boat with the constant rhythm of the sea and the wind singing in the rigging.

Sorry for the delay.
I can cruise at 16.8 and have a top end of 19 but am changing drives.
I have had it out in some very steep 2 meter sea. Its wet but there is no need to slow.
At some point the strategy will be to set a sea anchor and wait.
