Broker's Comments

This is a twin keel fast sailing deck saloon cruiser. Built 1985 and evidence shows fitted out and completed 1992. Originally built as a wessex 390 12 of which were built then Scanyachts bought Wessex hence why she is now advertised as a Scanyachts 400. She really was beautiful when I was invited onboard loved her good condition teak deck, her stunning interior wood and all the clever ideas for use of storage and flip up shelves for foot rests or further extension on berths/seating. Really well fitted out and cared for, this boat will make you so proud if you become the new owner.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
