Classic wooden bermudan ketch yacht for sale

Designed and built in France, she was bought by the current owner in 2004 when lying in Turkey, remaining in the Med until 2011 cruising the islands and taking part in various classic regattas. Professionally maintained, she has benefitted from a complete new teak deck in 2018, new engine in 2012 and new rigging and main mast in 2015. Her rather unusual interior was a particular draw for the present owner as it is divided into 3 distinct areas offering separate accommodation for 6 people without being 'on top' of one another. A very elegant yacht, easily handled for short handed cruising but equally capable of classic regatta racing.

Classic wooden motor sailer ketch for sale

Described as a 'fifty-fifty' yacht by her designer W.G. McBryde, this fine vessel cleverly blends the benefits of both the sailing boat and the motor yacht in a way that many motor sailers seem to miss.

Her spacious interior of 15 Thames Tons offers an aft cabin and stunning saloon with nearly all original joinery, plus a large heads compartment and galley in the bows. With twin engines she is easy to handle in close confines and cruises easily at 6 knots, but she also has remarkable sailing performance with tiller steering on the aft deck for those sunny days offering 'wind in the hair' sailing. A truly stunning yacht refurbished by her experienced and dedicated owners.
