		Magic LOA 39’6” LWL 32’6” Beam 12’6” Draft 6’0” S.A. 1005 sq.ft.
Magic was designed by her owner, Craig Johnsen whose artistic eye was molded by a friendship with Lyle Hess.
		Craig has ample experience serving on tall ships and in the merchant marine.
This knowledge ensured that this elegant small schooner performs and looks like a beautiful classic.
		Built as a home for Craig and his wife Vicky, Magic has grown with their care and efforts to a exceptionally high standard of finish.
She is cold molded of red cedar and Honduras mahogany, sheathed in fiberglass set in epoxy and coated with polyurethane paint.
		The deck is laid yellow cedar on plywood. Under this is solid foam insulation and a ‘V’ joint overhead. Her interior combines off white enamel and extensive cherry joinery.
The cabinsole is solid bare teak. Her fittings were designed by Craig and cast in bronze.
		Always keen for a race the owners push Magic consistently to the top of local schooner classes.
She has cruised to Mexico and Hawaii but has always returned to Sidney to rest. For more information on Magic refer to WB 136:58.
