Broker's Comments

Register with Boatshed to see 45 extra photos of this Contention 33

A cruiser / racer designed around the 3/4 Ton series with a good deal of silverware to her credit over the years including winner of the 1976 Fastnet race. This particular example currently strikes a good balance between cruising in comfort and the ability to go racing.

Don't confuse her with the usual worn out stripped bare ex-club racers you may have seen, she is actually in pretty good cosmetic and mechanical order with a good engine and a comprehensive sail wardrobe.

These boat details are subject to contract.
