Please Note: Recent Survey (5-28-25) Available Upon Request

This 1978 Vineyard Vixen (#27) was purchased by current owner in 2006 and brought to Lake Charlevoix, Michigan at that time. She was then optimized for short handed sailing with the addition of the Hoyt Jib Boom System and new sails. Everything can be handled from the cockpit, with no need to go on deck while sailing! She was repowered with a Yanmar diesel in 1997. Opus is now out of the water and in storage.
