Mustang 30 ‘RESPECTABLE’ – SOLD

Tuesday 23rd June 2020

Mark Cameron Yachts are delighted to announce the successful sale of the Mustang 30 ‘RESPECTABLE’.

The pocket rocket MUSTANG 30 came from the board of the highly regarded dinghy and racing keelboat designer Paul Handley. Believed to be his only production design with a full deck and conventional interior. Its reported around 30 of the boats were built on the Isle of Wight.

Designed as a club racer the design proved to be highly capable and particularly well suited to short or two-handed events with some notable successes in the longer distance events including the challenging AZAB. While never a boat that could be classed as a ‘Bandit’ they do rate competitively under IRC and have proven capable against the more modern designs.

RESPECTABLE is a mark I version of the class which has been lightly used for local club racing in the last two ownerships. Well looked after and maintained she is presented in ready to go condition with her inventory including highlights such as:

• Upgraded MkII profile keel.
• New Z-Spars rig and standing rigging in 2004.
• North Sails 3Di Mainsail and #1 Genoa.
• Two Spinnakers.
• Extensive Sail wardrobe.
• Raymarine Instruments, Garmin Plotter.
• Rebuilt Yanmar 1GM10 engine.

Leaving her home port of Whitehills, Abredeenshire on a wagon RESPECTABLE will arrive in her new home on the Solent later this week before being commissioned and prepared for club racing and weekend cruising with her new owners. A boat that’s given her current owner a huge amount of enjoyment we are sure her new owners will get the same fun as they get to grips with this highly capable small racer.
