Although we have never actually raced, with her recent top-of-the-range laminated sails, she is a notably fast boat and has regularly outperformed pretty much anything we have encountered out on the water. She has excellent light-airs performance, extremely responsive steering and is easily manoeuvred under power.Pride of ownershipMarelisa is a handsome boat with a high “row-away factor”, an overall feeling of quality and solidity, and is much-admired wherever she goes.Easy to live withThanks to X-Yachts build quality, I have had no issues with any of the boat’s systems and have needed to do only regular routine maintenance during my ownership. Her sailing qualities are such that the engine has been used only sparingly and has been 100% reliable.This is a very reluctant sale, but age has now caught up with me and it’s time to downsize and do some pottering in the local Cornish rivers.”
