"Snowbird" was completed in 1971; her original owner was a meticulous engineer who sailed her with his wife all over the east coast for 45 years. In 2017, the current owner purchased Snowbird and began an ambitious refit project with CW Hood Yachts to bring her to better than new condition. All the deck hardware was carefully removed, the weather decks replaced, the coach roof replaced, and the structure of the teak cabin house was reinforced. Elegantly shaped new teak toe rails were fitted, and modern materials were used to create the foundation for a new cockpit.
Her systems were removed to make way for modern replacements (Also Yanmar 75 horsepower diesel that has been rebuilt but presently not installed), while all her interior components were carefully preserved. Snowbird has had all the structural work completed to keep her going for another 50 years, but her owner has moved onto a larger Little Harbor yacht, and now wishes to see someone else complete this project.

The hardest parts of the refit have been completed and Snowbird presents a unique opportunity to finish out a sound hull, and customize the systems and finishes as desired.
