Mark Cameron Yachts are delighted to have been appointed to act in the sale of the 1999 Rustler 42 ‘RED RUTH’.
With her long encapsulated lead ballast keel, substantial skeg hung rudder and generous displacement the Rustler 42, designed by Stephen Jones, is very much a traditional offshore cruising yacht.
