Broker comments
This is a powerful ocean going design from Farr which has had many excellent adventures during her ownership. Currently in with her 3rd owners, extensive work has been carried out over 2022 and 2023 (including new Genoa, storm covers and bimini, electrics, batteries radar and navigation equipment, solar panels, new tender and liferaft); her hull has recently been copper coated and is sold ready to sail from day one (including such things as EPIRB, charts, lifejackets, wet weather gear, flares, hand-held vhf, bedding, crockery and cutlery - in fact, everything needed for living on her). The current owner had intended sailing around the world in her starting summer 2024, but changes in his circumstances means that he is reluctantly parting with her.
