Fairey Boats Super Swordsman Aft Cabin for sale in Salcombe E11 United Kingdom

There can't be too many one owner Fairey motorboats. APOLLYON does benefit from relatively recent diesel re-powering, low-hours engines, and modern navigation systems. Otherwise, her owners since 1973 have preserved her as a wonderful timepiece of mid-century chic, always wintered ashore in a boat hall and professionally maintained.

There can't be too many one owner Fairey motorboats. APOLLYON does benefit from relatively recent diesel re-powering, low-hours engines, and modern navigation systems. Otherwise, her owners since 1973 have preserved her as a wonderful timepiece of mid-century chic, always wintered ashore in a boat hall and professionally maintained. Fairey Marine built nearly 60 Swordsman boats between 1964 and 1977, a development of the Fairey marque with greater emphasis on accommodation and less on engine space. The Super Swordsman 33 benefits from a raised aft cabin with full headroom and its additional en-suite WC/ shower compartment. APOLLYON exhibits all the Fairey Marine hallmarks of elegant design, solid construction and legendary 'Deep-V' hull sea-keeping and handling, together with significantly more public and private accommodation space for longer periods afloat. The boat has been little used during the last three seasons and we feel there will be work to do to her deck which is reflected in the reasonable asking price.
