Broker's Comments

We often imagine classic yachts as being compromised compared to a modern - particularly down below. This is the exception to that rule - headroom for a tall lanky yacht broker, and loads of airy accomodation - remarkable space in a 10m boat.

The full restoration in 2008 shows through, she remains in great sailing order. Some paint cracking where the gunwhales flex at the chainplates can be sorted in an hour or so and a pot of paint, then it's hard to see anything else she needs to turn every head in the harbour.

It;'s a cliche perhaps, but this one is definately worth seeing for yourself.
