Are you a seasoned yachtsman looking for a change? Our vendors are keen to trade up & invest funds in a modern monohull or catamaran for their future plans of sailing offshore.

Designed by Bruce Roberts and meticulously crafted by Taunton Marine of Christchurch in 2002. The sturdy construction and reliable build, this capable trawler opens a world of coastal cruising potential for those hard-to-reach places.
