Broker's Comments

First impression of this boat was that it had been well maintained and updated by the present owners who have owned it for the past 10 years.
New galley and nav station as well as relativley new sails and rigging with little use plus the new upholstery makes the boat feel looked after.
Whether racing or cruising, look beyond the valeting and tidying and you have an excellent purchase here.
