Christa
Details
26’6” Christa was built with Huon Pine & Celery Top Pine in 1989 at The Wooden Boatshop by Tim Phillips and Dick Whitaker. For a while Christa sailed out of Gippsland before heading west to Perth with a syndicate of sailors at RFBYC. Eventually she made her way back to Sorrento to her current custodians, a father-son duo, who have had her for about 15 years.
Christa is currently moored at Portsea and used as a pleasure craft; she carries a Yanmar 3YM20 engine. She would be well suited to either racing or hobbyist sailors, or for anyone interested in owning a Couta Boat with local origins.
