Construction

The underwater profile is fin with a skeg.

Solidly built she features a sensible moderate displacement with a safe and comfortable centre cockpit.

The hull is well constructed from welded steel. There is no pitting or corrosion.

Two identical yachts were built by two brothers the sister ship to this yacht completed an eleven year circumnavigation in 2001. There is no doubting the integrity of these two yachts.

Broker's Comments

This is a well constructed, safe and comfortable offshore yacht. Built 25 years ago she continues to be in excellent condition.

Planning a circumnavigation or just long offshore passages then this is the boat for you. Her sister ship was battered for days by extreme weather off the Florida coast and she emerged untouched. I would rather ride the seas in this boat than a GRP production boat. This yacht has been owned from new by the person who built it and any purchaser is assured of a thorough handover process.
