One of the most popular cruiser/racer yachts ever built; the Contessa 32, these fantastic yachts have brilliant sailing qualities and have proven themselves many times as long distance cruisers and as competitive racing yachts. With pretty lines and elegant hull shape this really is a yacht you will be proud to own.
Ithaca, CO369 is set up for short-handed and long distance cruising, very well equipped and maintained.
She has roller reefing, a high foot genoa for improved visibility, with a new furling system, and vane self-steering. The spinnakers have only been lightly used.
The hull is in excellent condition, with full professional exterior respray in 2021 and new teak decks, she is the most stunning example on the market today.
The 2014 Volvo Penta engine has less than 500 hours. She has modern electronics, solar panels, and Webasto heating below.
