Broker's Comments

Her current owners have enjoyed sailing this delightful Porter & Haylett single handed most of the time and on the occasions friends and family have joined them, life aboard is very comfortable.
She comes with a full size cooker with grill & oven, two fridges & a microwave. Plenty of hot & cold water allows for daily showers for the whole crew. The two double cabins are very comfortable with plenty of space, The owners have added an extra layer of foam to both double berths for added comfort. All cabins including the saloon have curtains, and there is also a set of external coverings for the main windows which are light grey and can be held out
in the summer to act as shades.

The Connoisseur 42 is a heavily built cruiser, and can feel stable being little affected by the wind.

Although she is easily handled by two people her current owners are approaching their senior years so would like to find a new family for their adorable boat, who will continue with their own adventures!

These boat details are subject to contract.
