Broker's Comments

These boat details are subject to contract.

"Virtually unsinkable", this Contessa is an excellent first family or single handed sailors boat. A good example of a 'tried and tested' yacht.

This lady is compact but she offers everything you would need for comfortable cruising.

This boat retains most of its original features but she has been updated and improved. A traditional layout with main saloon and forward berths.
Her owner has had a modern Easyroll roller boom system professionally installed to make cruising singlehanded an absolute pleasure.

Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
