Spectus - a 30' Western Approaches design, her mouldings were originally manufactured and completed by her current owners in 1979 with her first launch in 1989.
Having sailed her for many years her owners then laid her up in 2010 to begin maintenance work on her. Sadly do to time constraints she never saw the water again and as such her owners have taken the difficult step to put her up for sale as a project for those willing to bring her back to former glory.
A formidable hull, Spectus has all the fundamental elements on board to make an incredibly capable craft for the right buyer. Sails are in storage and the mast is down on the boat. The engine runs and there are mainly cosmetic issues that need to be attended to in order to bring her back up to speed.
Representing incredible value at her current asking price, this is a fantastic opportunity to own a superbly built original design 30' yacht.

Documentation included:
There are receipts for the hull and deck mouldings, sails & engine. The boat was built by the owners and therefore there is no Bill of Sale or Build Certificate that relates to this boat.
The owners would like to express that all equipment was working properly when the boat was last used but as she has been laid-up, out of commission, ashore for 10 years there can be no guarantee that all the equipment listed is currently in fully working order.
Viewing is highly recommended and an independent survey advisable should the buyer be unsure about the condition of the vessel.
