Description

Much appreciated gentlemens yacht for singlehanded performance cruising

Beautiful classic lined Sparkman & Stephens design in very good condition. Particularly good sailing characteristics and a timeless design. Functional interior with all luxury. Very fully equipped both interior and exterior. Easy to sail through the electric winches within reach of the steering position, hoisting the main sail from the cockpit and self-tacking furling jib. The ideal boat as a daysailer and for a longer stay on board.

A head turner on the water! Preliminary brochure.
