I've sold a few of these now, and I seem to remember saying about all of them “If I had the money I’d buy her myself.” That still holds good folks, and this particular boat is a real beauty.

She has been well looked after, and there has been a fair amount of money spent on some great upgrades. She has in mast furling for which the mainsail was specially made, and the owner tells me it has been a real bonus – he sails about 70% of the time simply because sail handing is so easy!

I was impressed, as always, by the nice wide side decks, the straightforward layout of the hardware and running rigging and the well thought out practicality of the whole package. Above decks she is clean and tidy, a tribute to the hard graft the owner puts in every winter – he returns her to pristine condition every close-season, and the result has been well worth the effort.

She is spacious down below, I am certainly impressed size of the after cabin, worthy of a much larger boat. The galley is nicely laid out with plenty of stowage, and the saloon is all the it should be, comfortable, snug, but not at all cramped. She has the added bonus of a three-outlet Eberspacher cabin heater, just the job as the nights start to draw in.

It ain’t often that such an ideal sized family cruiser comes on the market at the right price and in the right condition – so be quick and give me a ring here at Boatshed Port Solent – first come first served, form an orderly queue now!
