Broker's Comments

This is a classic blue water yacht that has been especially prepared for long distance cruising with extra fuel and water storage, solar power, extra anchors with long chains and warps and a host of other extras. She has already circumnavigated the globe as well as many other long passages. Very solidly built but she still has a good turn of speed, recently recording 9 knots under sail. As one would expect with a lady of this age, she requires some cosmetic attention and perhaps some updating of the sails and navigation equipment but otherwise she appears to be in sound condition. An ideal yacht to take a new owner on new adventures.
