Beautiful and elegant Stephen Jones ‘Spirit-of-Tradition’ daysailer/weekender with fantastic specification including carbon mast, Raymarine instruments, furling A-sails and road trailer. FLUTE is a very nicely presented and well-equipped example of the Stephen Jones-designed Rustler 33 daysailer/weekender from Rustler Yachts in Falmouth.
