"Juliet Kilo" is a Cheverton 40 from Cheverton Workboats of Isle of Wight. She was professionally fitted out by Jack Kay of Ardrishaig Boatyard (high quality boat builders) and is his personal yacht. This is a 6 berth, gentleman's motor yacht, capable offshore with long range ability and the amenities to liveaboard.Juliet Kilo is simply outstanding and featured in a Motor Boat & Yachting article in 1995. The author reporting - "This labour of love is something special"She remains in pristine condition and a stunning example of craftsmanship and maintained to an exemplary standard.Owners comment"Juliet Kilo" attracts great attention wherever she goes. I have had many offers to purchase her over the years but I knew when the time would be right and have now come to the decision to pass her on.She has proved herself to be a good sea boat, powerful and safe with an easy, quiet, cruising speed of 8-8.5kts. I have sailed her extensively in her home waters of the West of Scotland and previously the North West of England. I have also completed a circumnavigation of the British Isles including the Orkney's, covering 2800nM; she never once gave me bother.She has been well maintained throughout her 40 years and updated as necessary. She can safely go to sea tomorrow. Overview"Juliet Kilo" is owned and was professionally built by the current owner, owner of Ardrishaig Boatyard, boatbuilders. She featured in Motor Boat & Yachting's 1995 October issue. The author says "this labour of love is something special". And for Jackie this has been a labour of love, love of quality, craftmanship and excellence in every detail.She was also invited to attend the Bristol International Festival of the Sea in March 1996 in a personal letter from Teresa Bristow.How has she stood the test of time? To be honest I was speechless! Not only has she been designed by a keen eye for practicality and detail but she has been fashioned by a master craftsman. Speechless, because she looks like she has just been completed, it is impossible to comprehend she is over 40 years old."Juliet Kilo" is a joy to behold and a competent sea going motor yacht.Hull, deck, superstructure / GeneralDimensions / General- LOA - 13.71m / 45'- LOD - 12.19m / 40'- LWL - 10.97m / 36'- Beam - 3.81m / 12'6"- Draft - 1.37m / 4'6"- Displacement - 14,500Kg / 14.5 ton, loaded 12,500Kg / 2.5 ton light.- Ballast - 2,500Kg / 2.5 ton.- Designers - Cheverton of Cowes and Jack Kay.Builder -- Hull mouldings & main bulkheads by Cheverton of Cowes.- Deck, superstructure & completion by Jack Kay of Ardrishaig Boat Builders.Hull, deck & superstructure - The detail of work and condition in all areas remains exceptional.- GRP hull painted Black with a 2 pack polyurethane paint system.- The deck areas are epoxy sheathed 5/8ths marine ply, laid with Teak.- The superstructure is also epoxy sheathed 5/8ths marine ply with a White 2 pack polyurethane paint system.- The interior face of the superstructure is veneer paneled over the epoxy sheathing.- Varnished detail & features are a 2 pack polyurethane varnish system.- Interior - Iroko, Teak and Koto (for the light finish in the forecabin, heads and shower).- The deck head features Iroko structural beams, picked out with white egg shell Formica.
