A fine example of the iconic Fairey Spearfish MKIII, Spearious combines pedigree design, robust construction, and extensive recent investment to present a rare opportunity for discerning buyers.
Built in 1989 and boasting classic Fairey lines, this 30ft deep-V motor yacht delivers the performance and sea-keeping for which Alan Burnard’s designs are renowned. Her twin Sabre 225hp six-cylinder diesel engines provide confident handling and strong cruising performance, while her comprehensively updated systems and recent Coppercoat antifoul ensure she is ready for many more seasons afloat.
The boat is in very good condition, having been stored inside an insulated barn for nine months of the year under her current ownership.
