Arona AD 190 with Hurth
Dreamtime was built to accept a junk rig, and she sailed well in the light airs we had the few times we could sail her. She tacked through 90 degrees. The sails are available as patterns but the sailcloth has been damaged by the sun. She could be re-rigged as a gaff rig, plans were drawn for that, or a cutter rig could be trawn. Standing rigging is galvanised wire with deadeyes.
Four life jackets are on board. Fibreglass stanchions and Dyneema lifelines keep things on board. Provision was made for lifelines along the center of the deck.
