Broker's Comments

These boat details are subject to contract.

This is a highly specified, well equipped sailing yacht. A good turn of speed should make this of interest to those who might want to have a go on the race course as well as its 'forte' as a good cruising yacht.

As you can see, the boat has been updated regularly and the owner has provided a very detailed specification which can be made available on request.

These are well known boats which were designed by the experienced hand of Stephen Jones. Drawing on many influences, the boat offers a spacious deck layout with thoughtful design, together with a powerful but easily managed rig and sail wardrobe. Passage making should be comfortable and this boat will make good time.

Below decks the layout takes full advantage of the boats size and dimensions. There is a lot of nice detail which would appeal to the 'first mate!' including storage areas and a vanity unit. The double heads facility should also be of interest.

A close examination of the pictures and the detailed inventory should leave you in no doubt that for this length of boat she will be a good buy.
