Northshore-Yachts SOUTHERLY 28 LIFTING KEEL for sale in GILLINGHAM United Kingdom

I purchased Grayling in 2015 with a view for her to become my forever retirement boat. In the three years I have owned her I have replaced, upgraded or rebuilt everything. Including rebuilt engine, new sails, new dodgers, new sail, hatch and tiller covers, refurbished sprayhood, new and upgraded standing rigging, new running rigging, new navigation equipment, new plumbing, new electrics, new seat table, refurbished prop,installed expencive Hi-fi, tv with aerial, electric heads, I have even refurbished the treadmaster, had the upholstery cleaned and stain protected. No expence has been spared on Grayling as I genuinely felt I would own her until I could no longer sail. Unfortunately just as I have completed my dream, personal circumstances have forced me to put her up for sale. I must add a very reluctant sale indeed.

The Southerly 28 offers 5 berths in 2 cabins with 6'3" maximum headroom. The forward cabin offers two single berths.

The Saloon has a large dining table to port with C-shaped seating and table which can be slid up the mast step pole to underside of the deck. There is an infill that goes under the salon table when raised to make into a double berth.

There is a linear galley to starboard with two burner gas hob, with oven and grill. stainless steel sink with cold pressurised water. Aft of the galley is a large chart table with navigation seat, instrumentation and access to the aft quarter 6" 5" berth.

The Heads is aft of the saloon and to port with Jabscom electric marine toilet, wash basin with cold water tap. The boat has fawn/brown upholstery with carpets and curtains. The boat has a cosy feel which is enhanced by the Eberspacher diesel cabin heating system.

The companionway steps led up to a large, well-protected cockpit with two good sized lockers.
