Broker's Comments
The Contessa 28, which was designed by Doug Peterson, is the smaller sister to the Contessa 34. She is a very seaworthy boat with good windward performance. She has a deep cockpit with high sides, which is safe and comfortable. 
Below she has 6 berths. There are 2 in the forward cabin  with the heads to starboard and storage opposite. The main saloon has 1 settee berths that converts to a double and another one opposite with a quarter berth to starboard. The galley is on the port side.
This is a comfortable cruiser which will not embarrass herself around the club race course. She's priced competitively. 
These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
