The owner tells us that the engine needs a major overhaul as he has not had time to complete this before departing.

There is a brand new prop shaft on board acquired by the owner as potential spare from another Conway owner.

An Aerogen wind generator is available but it's blades need renewing after flying off in a storm!

All the batteries were replaced with new batteries in Sep 2010.

Broker's Comments

This is a boat for the practical yachtsman who wants a lovely boat at an excellent price and can dedicate many happy days of restoration and repair. The story with this boat is that the owner left it in Gibraltar in 2002. He returned this summer to put it on the market as the cost to ship home is too high.

It is paradoxical that many of the items on this boat are old but new! For example the sails have hardly been used since they were cut new in 2000.

In the hands of the right owner and with the investment of a few thousand pounds this rough diamond will polish up into a sparkling gem.

Please note that this boar is being sold on a "where is, as is" basis.

These boat details are subject to contract.
