Broker's Comments

Register with Boatshed to see 32 extra photos of this David Thomas Half Tonner

She's from the pen of David Thomas - so she's sure to be fast. Designed for speed but don't overlook the fact that with a large cockpit and 6 berths she can also be cruised - borne out by recent visits to the continent. Her knowledgeable owner has lots of bills, for sails, the recent paint work, replaced windows, deck fittings, etc.

She has a considerable sail wardrobe, the Yanmar is generally reliable and cheap to run, and she has good levels of navigation equipment - providing a very attractive package - at a extremely good price.
