Discover the enduring charm of this 1979 Cernat Vedette 60, a vessel with a unique backstory, initially constructed for the French Navy yet never deployed to service. Instead, its sole journey has been one of leisure after a private owner transformed it into a comfortable cruiser, ideal for both the open seas and tranquil local waters.
The cruiser is equipped with a sturdy Poyaud 6PZM main diesel engine and a reliable 8KVA Fischer Panda PMS 8000 Generator, supporting extended, self-reliant voyages. The practical layout includes a spacious deck for enjoying the ocean views and a cozy interior with all the necessary amenities for a pleasant stay aboard.
Perfect for adventurers or those seeking a maritime home away from home, this cruiser blends robust construction with the essentials for leisure cruising. Ready to sail and awaiting a new owner to take the helm. Lovingly cared for and meticulously maintained by her current owner

The condition or level of safety equipment on board is not to be negotiated on following survey. It is likely to be listed by most surveyors but is not structural or an integral working part of the vessel and is not to be used to further negotiate the price down after survey. We strongly suggest that for your own personal safety that when purchasing a yacht you provide new safety equipment rather than relying on second hand gear.
Should you become the new owner of this yacht then the responsibility to re-register or update official bodies for items such as EPIRB, VHF, MMSI or AIS becomes yours.
