    This high volume David Thomas design offers comfort with ease of handling, it also offers fun family sailing. The twin double cabin layout makes this an attractive entry level boat or family cruiser. Calliope has been fastidiously maintained and lightly used over the years and has been professionally maintained and upgraded with the hull having been epoxied in 2001, and new Yanmar engine in 2023 - plus many other upgrades. Excellent twin-keeled example.
