Broker's Comments
This is a very rare racing /cruiser sloop designed by John Holmes. The current owner carried out extensive refurbishment works to the hull and rudder in 2008 ( please see photos ) and has always ensured that all major mechanical systems were regularly serviced. The interior has its original features including the floor, headlining and cabinetry all of which is in good order. The inventory includes a full set of racing sails and this would be a terrific yacht to race in regattas or to escape for enchanting weekends and coastal cruising. Higher resolution photos are available on request.
