Broker's Comments
This Vancouver 28 is number 65 out of 67 built. Two owners from new and well looked after.
These boats, with their encapsulated keel, are renowned for their seaworthiness and blue-water sailing abilities.
The original engine has done less than 900 hours, it started instantly and ran smoothly.
It has a Schwing wind vane system.
The teak deck looks remarkably good and the hull and topsides seem in good condition. There is no windlass.
Below deck the interior woodwork and upholstery also shows careful ownership. There is a non operational Webasto heater.
There are ample sails, with storage behind the heads in the bow, in fact storage abounds in all parts of the boat.
For a solo sailor or a couple this is the kind of boat to take on challenging passages in search of true adventure!
These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
