DOLPHIN 31 For Sale | 1978
A well presented example of the popular Dolphin 31. Solent Dolphin has had plenty spent on her during her current and previous ownership including the huge benefit of a recently installed engine.
With her spacious accommodation and kindly seakeeping qualities, Solent Dolphin will appeal to the family sailor and serious cruiser alike with a budget.
Her Mylor based swinging mooring could be available by separate negotiation.
To arrange a viewing please call the the Mylor Ancasta office.
