Register with Boatshed to see 70 extra photos of this Super Sovereign 35 MKll.Boatshed Wales is pleased to present for sale this Super Sovereign 35.
This vessel is being offered for sale due to unpaid yard storage fees, and as such, the information available is limited. The following details have been compiled based on our own inspection and a marine survey conducted in May 2021.
We understand that the vessel was in sound condition and appeared well maintained at the time of her last sale in December 2022. She sold for 35,000, which reflected her overall condition and the significant investment made around that period. Upgrades included (but were not limited to) a new Vetus diesel engine installed in 2019, a range of modern and high-quality navigational and electrical systems, and considerable attention to rigging and sails.
Since that time, the vessel has suffered damage to her keel and rudderlikely as a result of running agroundand has remained ashore for at least four years, during which time she has received little, if any, maintenance. As a result, she now shows signs of weathering, a build-up of dirt, water ingress, and possible flooding.
A copy of the 2021 survey report (PDF) is available on request. We strongly recommend reviewing both the survey and the photographs provided to assess whether a physical viewing is worthwhile. Please note that we are unable to provide further information beyond what is included here and in the survey.
The vessel will be sold with:
A current Bill of Sale
Previous Bills of Sale
A builder's declaration confirming UK VAT has been paid
Ships manuals and a comprehensive operators manual
We believe this is an opportunity to acquire a substantial yacht with plenty of valuable recent investment, We must however make it clear, the boat requires significant effort to return her to her former glory.
We welcome enquiries for the survey report and viewing appointments.

Register with Boatshed to see 87 extra photos of this Robertson and Caine Leopard 4500 .The Leopard 45 needs no introduction - the 2017 Boat of the Year by Cruising World Magazine. This marks the 7th Cruising World Boat of the Year win by Leopard.
The layout of these models on deck and below are simply the best use of the available space. Not only is there the large aft cockpit but foredeck seating - this area is superb on hot days offering shade but breeze while at anchor.
The interior, saloon and galley areas are extremely spacious and so are the 4 double cabins and heads.
This particular example also has the bow crew cabin via the deck hatch.
What is huge bonus with this particular 4500 is that it is the 4500C Crewed Yacht version. This boat comes more extra than the standard Bareboat version and had the added bonus of only being driven and maintained by its live aboard professional crew.
