PENNYWISE, like all Wellingtons, is an exceptionally well constructed blue water cruising boat. With stunning Honduras mahogany joinery below deck, her accommodations are warm and welcoming while her raised salon bathes the interior in natural light. With a newly rebuilt 77 HP Yanmar diesel engine, she easily cruises at 7 knots under power and with a powerful ketch rig she is also remarkably fast under sail.
