Rossiter Curlew 32

Wooden Ships Comments on this Rossiter Curlew 32

Rossiter Curlew 32 designed by H.T. Rossiter and built by Rossiter Yachts, Christchurch in 1981.

Built for the current owners father following on from his larger previous yacht built by the same yard, the present owner has been the custodian of this yacht since 1990.  Cruised extensively over the years with trips to southern Brittany and Belle Isle, Ireland and up to Stockholm.  The experienced owner has spent many years fine tuning this yacht for extended and comfortable cruising so that she is now a very well equipped and well set up boat, proving herself as a capable and comfortable sea boat over thousands of sea miles.

Her cockpit is large and spacious, but also set well down into the hull giving a feeling of security while still being easy to move about.  The raised topsides forward hugely increase the interior volume giving a large and comfortable cabin for a boat of this length with 6’ headroom and up to 6 berths.

Her hull design is very shallow draft for the length, together with the bilge keels she can easily take the ground and dry out allowing her to access anchorages off limits to deep keel yachts.  This feature opens up the cruising options around the coasts of the UK and France and invites exploration of some wonderful parts of the coast.

This is a very well presented yacht in superb condition, absolutely ready for her next owner to continue the voyaging she has excelled at so well.
