“Astragale” is a Mason 33s designed by Al Mason in the late 50’s.
Professionally built in 1974 by Paul Mailloux of Mailloux Leclerc shipyard in Île-aux-Coudres, Charlevoix QC, using mild steel. Deck and hull plates are 1/8 of an inch, keel plates are 3/16 of an inch.
In 2004 ASTRAGALE was transported from Ontario to Quebec city were she underwent a complete and thorough refit.
A thorough inspection of the hull was conducted and a section of the bow, chain locker location, was replated with 3/16 of an inch by the son of M. Mailloux, who works as a professionnal ship welder.
A dog house was added, 1/8 of an inch plate, to have an inside watch area with a collapsible seat. Portholes made of lexan 3/8.
“Astragale” was back in the water in 2015 and navigated St-Lawrence river and the Maritimes.
The interior finish is to yacht standards; a great opportunity for a couple looking for a strong pocket cruiser to explore remote coves and bays.
Fully equipped for cruising with recent survey available on request.
