Remarks
This is a lovely CC Cruising Ketch set up and ready to move onboard. Currently in St Lucia Eastern Caribbean. Vessel relaunched last week with new topside and antifoul.
Registered under New Zealand Flag.
Recent comprehensive Survey completed prior to my purchasing 18 months ago.
Vessel sails well with nice balance under full rig (6.5-7.5kts on a reach). Near new engine in spotless condition.
No deck or hatch leaks.
I picked this vessel for cruising to "out of the way places" because of its large centre cockpit, solid construction, plenty of storage space and room for any upgrades like a watermaker etc. Nicely laid out Galley.
Due to family reasons, I need to return home, so need to sell. Open to genuine offers.. Initial contact via email please.
