Remarks :
This Open 5.70 is an excellent example, she has been well updated over the past two years, she has had a new mast, standing rigging and sails added to her inventory. The boat has been professionally machine polished and waxed. She is class legal, although does have some sail configurations that allow her to compete competitively in handicapped racing.
The boat comes with a road-based trailer which has had new bearings in 2019, the trailer enhances the ability to hook the boat up and race all of the championships in other out of port locations.
The boat is owned by two private UK individuals, they appreciate that the boat might be imported into France to join the healthy Open 5.70 class and will help in any way they can to assist in delivery. This could either be preparing the boat and dropping onto a ferry from Plymouth so that a new owner could collect it on the other side of the channel at Roscoff or if there is any Spanish interest Santander.
