Marketing Description
Great example of these popular go anywhere bluewater cruisers. Only in its second ownership since being launched in 1996, Topaz Rival has been extensively upgraded and is ready for long distance cruising. New engine, new rigging, new Sanders sails, and new electronics have all been fitted and she had full osmosis treatment in 2020. All lines from three reefs lead back to the cockpit and Topaz has a furling staysail, fitted in 2022. The current owner has a log of all improvements and has recently completed a trip to the Mediterranean and an Atlantic circuit. Comfortable accommodation with “Jack and Jill” heads, large saloon, shower, oven and grill, and lots of storage. A generous battery bank, solar and wind generator mean off-grid sailing is possible away from marinas. The perfect boat for low cost adventurous sailing wherever the wind may take you. Currently available for viewing at Portishead Marina.
