If you know your boats it is easy to get quite excited about this one. It's such a rare treat to have a boat listed for sale that is so very well found, equipped and presented. The current owners are a keen and knowledgeable cruising couple with years 0f experiance and it shows in the boat.
The Nic 40 is one of my all time favouites. It is a true blue water cruiser which will look after all on board whilst at a size which is managable short handed and cost effevtive to live with. A true bluewater cruising thoroughbred.
These boat details are subject to contract.
