Description

.

The Contest 36, designed by Dick Zaal is a cruiser-racer with an outstanding performance combined with a very spacious interior. The "Esmeralda" is no exception. She is the sloop version with fin keel and offers a wide saloon and two seperate cabins (fwd & aft), built with generous use of mahogany. Over the past recent years, she was fitted with a new engine, new saloon upholstery, new rigging and new sails. She is well equipped and viewing is highly recommended.
