Little need to be said of the Nelson Class build quality. This model was built by the Bembridge Boat Company, the birthplace of the Nelson. Lovingly maintained by the current owners she has the benefit of a professional Awlgrip paint job and positively gleams. The aft cabin has been totally modified to give extra headroom and the added benefit of this is a large, raised aft deck with teak decking and comfortable seating. All brightwork is well varnished and the main decks are fitted with Treadmaster.

Broker's Comments

Register with Boatshed to see 53 extra photos of this Nelson 40 Aft Cabin

The older style Nelsons are arguably the prettiest and this one proves it. Classic dark blue hull and white superstructure with beautiful varnish work. The recent Awlgrip paint job enhances her and she would make anyone proud. Well appointed with good sized engines giving very capable performance in one of the most seaworthy hulls built. Regularly used she is offered in full commission to sail away now. These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
