Opening bronze port in cabin trunk, hatch overhead and a nice bank of drawers on the starboard side. Heading aft is the enclosed head to port with vanity, toilet, and storage outboard. Opposite to starboard is a hanging locker. Next is the Main Salon. Her salon is warm and inviting with an abundance of teak cabinetry, teak and holly sole, ash ceiling strips on the hull sides, all opening bronze ports and an overhead hatch for excellent light and ventilation. She has settees both port and starboard and pilot berths outboard with storage under the pilot berths. The table is mounted on the port side forward bulkhead and when down can accommodate dining on both sides of the vessel. The port settee pulls out to create a more comfortable berth. Aft to port is the U-shaped sea galley and opposite to starboard is the aft facing navigation station and large ice box with refrigeration. Engine access is under the companionway steps. The cockpit is deep with high combings and a bridge deck in front of the companionway allowing for a dry boat. The side decks are wide and she has true bulwarks for solid footing in a sea way.

The water has always been a part of my life since learning to sail aboard a Sailfish while vacationing in Chatham, Massachusetts. At twelve, I graduated to Penguins and 420’s at the Tred Avon Yacht Club in Oxford, Maryland. My parents always belonged to the Corinthian Yacht Club in Philadelphia and I often accompanied them on cruises aboard a Hinckley Bermuda 40 that we cruised in the Chesapeake.

Understanding banking after working 12 years for Loyola Savings and Loan of Maryland, I helped navigate the purchase of a 32’ Pearson Vanguard for a friend and taught him to sail. Loving the idea of sharing my passion for boating, I joined Oxford Boatyard Yacht Sales (in what is now Safe Harbor Oxford Boatyard and Marina) in 1990 and worked as a broker and office manager for 25 years. 

In 1993, Oxford Boatyard Yacht Sales became a dealer for Sabre and Back Cove Motor Yachts and I acquired an understanding and respect for powerboats. I worked closely with the boatyard commissioning new vessels and working as a liaison between new owners and the marina. I have an intimate understanding of the boat buying process - how to guide new owners through surveys, sea trials, registration, and documentation. 

I love all boats and each one has its own quality. Though I would consider myself a traditionalist in boat design, I like what the new designs offer in comfort and ability. 

 

My husband (of 30 years) and I live in Easton, Maryland. My husband is the rigging supervisor at Safe Harbor Oxford Boatyard and our daughter, having graduated from Washington College in 2020, is now teaching English as well as coaching the sailing team at the Gunston School in Centreville, Md. She has recently come on board as the Summer Sailing Director with the Tred Avon Yacht Club.

 

I am starting my 7th year as a broker with Brewer Yacht Sales and in addition to my office at Safe Harbor Zahniser’s in Solomon’s, Maryland I now have an office at Safe Harbor Oxford. This enables me to cover the territory from the Eastern Shore to Solomon’s Island and everything in between. 

 

I look forward to speaking with you and sharing my passion for boats. Let me help you find the perfect yacht or support and guide you in the sale of your existing vessel!
