Well-maintained owner’s yacht – never used for charter – well equipped and in very good condition. Robustly built and comfortably fitted out, she is the ideal companion for bluewater sailors. The long keel, with a shallow draft of just 1.60 m, allows for easy anchoring in shallow waters.

The large rigid-hull dinghy – an AB Navigo 12VS – offers ample space for diving equipment or for supply runs ashore. The 20 hp outboard engine ensures swift progress even against a current.
