43ft Steel Motor Sailer Design #200

Here's a tough little cruiser ideal for coastal explorations in fair weather or foul.  The hull lines are developed for sheet material and simplified construction.  All ballast is internal.  The accommodation plan shows five berths including two doubles, but this boat is really laid out for a cruising couple.
