Serena was built in 1966, and now sports a new engine, rig, upholstery, and Awlgrip. There is plenty of space both above and below her deck for milling about. Lifelines encircle the entire length of the vessel and are covered with safety netting. There is a large cushioned cockpit for sitting above deck. There is a settee (couch) below deck and lots of deck cushions for your comfort. She has a double cabin, double v-berth, full galley and head (bathroom). Serena welcomes aboard any food or drinks you would like to bring on board. She has a large cooler stocked with iced water and soda above deck for your use. She is one of the few Charleston sailing vessels providing complimentary bottled water and soft drinks for her guests. Catering can also be arranged.
