"Shenanigans" has demonstrated her capabilities in both arenas. She spent the first portion of her life as a successful racer in Southern California. In October of 2021, her new owners upgraded and outfitted her for the cruise that took her to Mexico for two years. She could easily be returned to full racing status, but she is currently set up for further long-distance, blue water cruising.

She has 2 Victron LiFeP94 house batteries with solar charging and Victron charge controllers and monitoring instrumentation. There is a separate West Marine start battery.

In December, 2024, her topsides were cleaned and new bottom paint applied.
As previously noted, the above list is a partial list. However, it should be more than enough to show what a tremendous value this boat will be to the sailor or sailing family who, although looking for an exceptionally capable cruiser, might also want to ambush a few boats on a Bay or ocean race course now and then. Do the homework. Look at the comps to see what these boats are selling for. But don’t wait too long or she’ll be gone.
