Jouet 1280

[Cherp]

Hello sailors....I've got my eye on the web on a French-built Jouet 1280. The general set-up would meet our needs, but I don't know the Jouet brand, apart from the fact that they have been built for many years in various sizes and are more common in Europe that the US. Does anybody on the forum have information on the 1280? For example, were they built for the charter market or to go to sea, are they a cored hull or a solid hull and how do they perform and so forth. Any information would be appreciated, as I have none at present.

Oh by the way, the one we are looking at was built in 1984.

Good design, roomy, strong. Even in Europe not a commoner. Good interior layout.
