Broker Comments
In our opinion this is a fantastic opportunity to own a high-quality, seaworthy yacht and will appeal to sailors who value traditional construction, generous cruising capacity and the freedom to explore beyond familiar waters. Her circumnavigation history adds an important dimension to her appeal and she merits consideration by anyone seeking a substantial steel cruising vessel for liveaboard life and ambitious passage-making.
