  • Boat description35 foot aluminium sloop in excellent condition and fully equipped for short-handed offshore / adventure sailing off the beaten track. Open plan interior with two comfortable double sea berths + saloon. Galley with fridge and oven. No hot water. Since I bought her in 2020, she went through a number of refits and has been constantly upgraded and improved. This included new standing rigging, new sails, new anchors, major upgrades to electrics and electronics, all new safety equipment (PLB, EPIRB, liferaft, AIS distress beacons, three VHFs, two oft them with DSC, AIS transponder with Wifi and alarm, offshore flares pack, lifejackets with harness), new batteries, new solar panels and wind charger, new top of the range electric autopilot, two new heating systems, SSB radio transmitter with Pactor Modem, new radar screen, etc. as well as a lot of painting :) All safety equipment on board is up-to-date. Reliable Yanmar 35 HP engine with 180l tank (giving a 500 miles range under engine). I sailed over 20 000 miles with her, half of it single-handed. She's not fancy, but she's a strong, reliable offshore cruiser.
