REMARKS
Since purchasing "Sprayling II" in 2000 , she has given her owner so much enjoyment and satisfaction. He has found her to be an excellent passage maker, reeling off the miles with little demand on the crew. Her owner has not sailed her beyond UK and coastal EU waters, although she would be very suited to more extended voyages.
Her owner has changed most items on the boat over his 25 years and described her as being "as good as a 50 year old yacht can be". She is now "ready to go" for her next adventure.
