Elan Impression 344 (2008) in vendita in Hamble, Regno Unito

Boat Details

This Elan Impression 344 offered for sale at Hamble Point is a great family boat that optimises interior space and light. The Rob Humphries designed Elan Impression 344 is an exceptionally well designed and innovative cruiser, achieving an enviable interior in this length whilst retaining a pretty and stylish contemporary silhouette. 

Blue Pearl was moulded in 2008 and commissioned in 2009. Her blue hull is attractive and sets her apart from the run of the mill.

With 3 double cabins, a seaworthy galley, easily accessible heads position in the right place, at the foot of the companionway and a friendly saloon, in a length that allows you to cruise distances and still get into places larger boats are barred from, quite what more could one ask for?
