Etap 24i

Article Abstract:

Belgian builder Etap is not a stranger to innovations, and the new Etap 24i is filled with them, this little cruiser has the ability to sail even when filled with water, having an optional shoal-draft tandem keel to make trailering easy and the toerails that double as cleats. Two adults could make short cruises in comfort on the 24i, perhaps with a small child or two and $59,000 includes sails and delivery on the boat anywhere in the United States.
