Broker's Comments
This is a seriously well equiped, and a very seaworthy, live-aboard vessel that would suit anybody planning long passages. The present owners have owned her for 23 years and have always replaced and upgraded anything that needed doing and she is now probably a better boat than when she was new.
This boat has been viewed and photographed by Peter Delbridge of Boatshed Hamble. Register or log in to see 49 more photos of this boat. These boat details are subject to contract.
