How to Sell a Yacht

September 5th 2022

How to sell a classic yacht – 10 things to expect from your broker. Selling a classic yacht can be daunting, but working with a broker can simp…

More detail on this classic sailing yacht for sale: https://woodenships.co.uk/sailing-yacht/luke-powell-pilot-cutter-2/

Used as a successful charter business since being launched in 2009. The business is included with the purchase of the boat and she could continue to work with a new owner running charter trips around the UK, or diversifying and going further afield if desired. The business has a lot of traction and accounts for previous years are available on request. she is also the right size yacht to become a comfortable private cruising boat.

Designed and built by Luke Powell of Working Sail in 2009. Luke Powell pilot cutter Amelie Rose is the sister ship to an earlier boat, ‘Ezra’, and as such, was a proven design with a track record.

Built for the present owner, this 44ft boat has operated as a charter and sail training vessel since her launch through what has been a very successful business.

Since her launch in 2009, she has worked every season and, as such, has benefitted from continual maintenance and inspection to keep her in top fettle and satisfy the MCA commercial coding surveyors. Her Category 2 MCA certificate has recently lapsed but could be reinstated very easily for a new owner.

Her design was chosen as it is a perfect size, combining manageability, space and comfort, giving 10 berths and ample deck space while still being a sailing yacht that can be handled by a small crew.

She became well known after appearing in the BBC programme 'The Hungry Sailors' and has become a common sight in harbours along the south coast and in Brittany, as well as proving her speed at the Pilot Cutter Review in St Mawes.

A very classic yacht for sale in solid condition, capable of continuing her role as a charter vessel or moving to be a comfortable and capable private yacht. Internal and external refit completed summer 2024.

Price is subject to VAT as part of the charter business but this could be reclaimed by a buyer with the right circumstances.

The business is available with the boat and included in the purchase price. Topsail Adventures Ltd has been incorporated since 2006 and full accounts are available to a prospective purchaser.

More detail on this classic sailing yacht for sale: https://woodenships.co.uk/sailing-yacht/kim-holman-landfall-class-ketch/

Kim Holman Landfall ketch built by Whisstocks Boatyard Ltd, Suffolk, UK in 1958.

She was the first yacht of 6 built to this Kim Holman design and gave her name to the class. Built for Claude Whisstock, the owner of the boat yard, she was therefore the ‘boss’s boat’ and would have been built with a little extra care and attention. Owned by Whisstock for 25 years, she then had another long ownership before being given a major refit between 1998 and 2004.

Bought by the previous owners in 2006 and sailed to Devon where she was modified and prepared for long distance cruising and live aboard sailing. After cruising the West country in 2007, the then owners departed in 2008 for a 15 year cruise, arriving back in the UK in 2023. Their cruise took them south to the Cape Verdes, across the Atlantic to Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina before travelling north through the western Caribbean, into Cuba, USA and Canada before heading home via the Bahamas, Bermuda and the Azores. The voyage covered 29,000Nm with over 400 anchorages and moorings.

The boat has behaved impeccably throughout that period and has never gave any cause for concern. She was a comfortable and safe cruising home, easily handled by her 2 crew in all conditions and much admired wherever she went.

Sold in February 2024 to the current owner, refit work weas carried out to remedy issues highlighted in the 2023 survey and the boat sailed to her new home in Dorset. Unexpectedly back on the market after only one season due to personal circumstances of the owner, this is a great opportunity for someone to acquire a spacious, capable and comfortable cruising yacht with great pedigree and provenance.

Full survey report available from November 2023 along with a list of actions taken since to satisfy the insurance company.
