This lovely yacht is really very easy on the eye!

She appears nice, bright and white and her traditional, graceful lines suggest to me a great potential sailing performance and experience.

Most areas are quite conventional for a vessel of her age - a useful, deep and practical cockpit lead to a very nice, sweet smelling and largely revamped interior, which is light, bright and airy, with recent carpet and upholstery - this really lifts and complements the vintage wooden features.

There is plenty of room to lounge and she has a fridge in lieu of the stbd pilot berth - though the cushions are provided, if you don't want the fridge.

A cosy forward cabin and decent sized heads (with sink removed) provide what we think is ample accommodation for a solo sailor, couple, group of friends, or small family for weekend fun, or longer.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
