Additional Comments

This attractive design was built by the renowned yard of Tough Bros in Teddington and has recently been refurbished and much improved by a knowledgeable owner using the very best materials and skilled craftsmen. The boat has been re-engined, new teak deck laid, a bow thruster fitted, new diesel genset installed and much more. The interior work has been executed to the highest standard, seamlessly blending the new with the original.

Air draft with antenna mast standing is 8.5m. This mast is easily lowered singlehanded - at the touch of a button - with the electric winch, the air draft is quickly reduced to 3.5m. For particularly low bridges, the windscreen can be removed quite simply to reduce the air draft further to only 3m.

A comfortable and practical cruiser, with a large aft deck for outside entertaining, excellent access from the wheelhouse to the deck both sides, an outside helm position with duplicate controls and electronics, and a magnificent owner's cabin aft, this is a truly exceptional motor yacht offered for sale at a fraction of her replacement value. A beautiful classic that attracts admiring looks wherever she goes.
