The listing
Description
"The best of both worlds" ... A perfectly found sales argument.This spacious cruiser of just under 12m, just under 4m in beam (easier for berth space), whose design was entrusted to the great architect Bruce Farr, has achieved enormous success: nearly 800 units built.
It is real cruising comfort to be the only ones continuing under sail while the others are running on the engine...
This unit has been well maintained by its two owners.
Windows replaced in 2024
Standing rigging replaced in 2020, stern gland seal replaced at the same time as well as the fittings at the rudder stock ends.
Engine heat exchanger replaced in 2022
