Broker's Comments
Relatively fast, seaworthy boat, feels larger than her size. Good family or starter boat. Down below she is roomy, clean and comfortable. The heads compartment is so spacious you could be forgiven for thinking you were aboard a much larger yacht.
Her side decks are wide and clear, and the coachroof tapers nicely while still giving around 6 feet of headroom in the saloon. This boat is ideal for family cruising yet has enough turn of speed to be a worthy competitor at club level.
She has just has a comprehensive valet, carried out by professionals, so her hull and decks are in good shape and her teak trim has been brightened and treated. Below she is clean and tidy and all the basics appear to be sound. She really must be viewed to appreciate the sheer amount of space available.
Overall, this is a cracking little cruiser with plenty of accommodation and enough speed to make fast passages or be worthwhile taking in the odd race around the buoys, and all at a bargain price.
