Abeking And Rasmussen Rhodes Classic

ARION has been owned by the same family for 40 years.  She has been well-maintained and updated, including a 1991 Perkins 4108 with 1400 hours.  In 2002 her bottom was refastened and replanked.  Her Doyle sails are in excellent condition.  She has roller furling for the genoa, oversize self-tailing Lewmar winches, and a Robertson autopilot for short-handed sailing.  Photos are from August 2014.

ARION is a beauty and will grace any harbor.  She has been updated and lovingly maintained.
