The world-renowned Starlight 39 needs little introduction and offers her owner the perfect blending of performance and comfort. Charmary was originally supplied by Clarke & Carter in 1990 and is only in her second ownership. She was sailed out to the Baltic in 2015/16 where she has been cruising ever since. She appears to present well for her age and has been well maintained. She boasts a recent engine and good electronics.
