Broker's Comments

This 28 foot sailing yacht has travelled plenty. In my opinion she has an attractive look to her so if looking for a yacht of this size she is worth considering.

She obviously requires a little TLC as her interior is looking worn and tired but overall she looks in reasonable condition.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.

This Twister 28 has been personally photographed and viewed by Andrew of Boatshed Gibraltar. Click here for contact details.
