Broker's Comments

The Yachts and Yachting magazine review of the Nantucket Clipper, back in 1970, said, 'She is a fine yacht in her own right, but with a special appeal to anyone seeking something a little different from the average.'

This is a solid cruiser from the well respected pen of Alan Buchanan that has produced something just that little bit special, just that little bit different from the normal production line boats.

Reputedly these boats have a pleasant easy motion and they were thoughtfully appointed.

This example needs some work to bring her back to being cruising ready but would make a great first time or family boat for coastal cruising.

These boat details are subject to contract.
