Description

Unlike her modern sister ships, this vessel was built in 2000 and benefits from acres of both solid and laminate mahogany cabinet work. Don’t be put off by the 4-cabin layout as she has only ever been in private ownership and never chartered. The midship bunk cabin is ideal for unexpected guests or doubles as a decent storeroom for longer trips. Talking of which, the current owner has just returned from a trip to Gibraltar and back. Powered by a well maintained inboard Volvo Penta 55 hp MD22L with 120SD saildrive unit. Comprehensive electronic navigation package including AIS, 12-inch colour plotter, radar, DSC VHF and autopilot. Excellent safety package including NEW liferaft. Comes with dinghy and outboard.
