NOTES

A shallow draft keel version was also available. (also trailable).
Kells Corp. was located in Tiverton, RI, USA. Little else is known about the company. There is also a KELLS 22 which is significantly different than this model. Unfortunately I know next to nothing about it so I haven't created a separate listing for it.
