Sparkman & Stephens DELTA 94 (1975) in vendita in Gozo, Malta

English

A time-classic S&S design, this SHE DELTA 94 is a particularly well equipped and maintained example. She was substantially rebuilt, refitted and re-equipped in 2001/03 and has since been professionally maintained and constantly updated. She spends five months each year out of the water. Her exceptionally well-balanced hull shape and easily handled rig make her simple to sail and yet she rewards the keen sailor with her response to fine tuning. Like all S & S designs, she is a great sea boat, well able to look after her crew in rough conditions. She will delight the single-handed sailor as much as a family crew.

Viewing highly recommended, berthing up to 31.12.2023 included and available for take-over at pro-rata usage.
