Spacious three-cabin version with a bathroom and shower. This yacht is in good condition and well-equipped for sailing, built in 2003. The boat was first sold in Holland in 2003 from a dealer, and the VAT receipt is available. We are the third owners, and it has been stored indoors during winter under both our ownership and that of the previous owner, where it has remained warm, dry, and free from wear, moisture, and algae from the elements.
