Description
The Botnia Targa 32
has earned a reputation as one of the finest all-weather motor cruisers in her class, combining excellent seakeeping, practical accommodation and outstanding build quality. Designed and built in Finland, she offers the security of deep side decks, protected wheelhouse and exceptional visibility from both helming positions. "Monkey Business"
is a well-specified example finished with the desirable blue hull and extensive teak decking package. Commissioned in 2018, she is powered by twin Volvo Penta D4-300 diesel engines and benefits from the rare option of full teak decking throughout, alongside a comprehensive navigation suite, diesel heating, bow thruster, solar charging and both internal and flybridge helm stations. Recently serviced and professionally maintained throughout her life, she presents in excellent order and is equally suited to coastal cruising, cross-Channel passages and extended cruising adventures.
