Broker's Comments

The legendary David Sadler designed Contessa 32 is renowned for her comfortable cruising capabilities. This vessel was built in Canada and was sailed accross the pond by its 85 year old previous owner! Since then she has been extensively upgraded including the new engine in 2006, new sails in 2009, new standing rigging, new upholstery in 2007, excellent navigation equipment and much much more. Now presented for sale with all these benefits due to the current owners living overseas.

These boat details are subject to contract.
