Register with Boatshed to see 87 extra photos of this Bahama 42 .Here we have a now rare FB Wilds Bahama 42. (in the videos I do call it CARIBBEAN 39)
These large spacious boats are now getting very few and far between. This particular example benefits from both bow and stern thrusters fitted by her owner of the last 15 years. She has two dedicated sleeping cabins one double and one a twin, two separate heads compartments one with a shower, a large saloon that converts to a large double and also opens on to a large forward well. The aft cabin has been set up as a kind of utility room with a small washing machine and work space and storage but could easily be converted back to a cabin or similar. She has full 240v shorepower system fitted, Warm air diesel heating, large solar panels and an inverter system
She has Perkins diesel engine that has been regularly serviced and this started and ran as it should. the galley runs down the starboard side and has a full size cooker large shoreline fridge and storage cupboards. her Boat safety certificate runs to March 2027, and her broads toll is paid. Her mooring could be available to the new owner by agreement with the marina owner. This boat is not perfect and has been improved here and there over the years. however some of this work has been done to an ok standard but to my eye could do with being done a little better. However this all all superficial and cosmetic in nature. To have both bow and stern thrusters is super nice to have on a boat of this size to ensure excellent maneuverability. She also benefits from front and rear canopies and a full set of window covers
If you are looking for a large liveaboard boat then this should fit the bill nicely.

Register with Boatshed to see 84 extra photos of this Morgan Giles 30 .The Morgan Giles yard was founded in Teignmouth in 1920 and continued for many years building high quality timber racing yachts for prestigious clients (such as Britannia RN College, amongst many others). As GRP construction became popular the yard evolved and the Morgan Giles 30 was originally a one off, for the yard's chief designers own use but up until 1996 over 70 boats had been built. Many of these are happily sailing and there is an active class association (MG30.org.uk)
They were built to go to sea, strong and with fine lines and lead ballast in her encapsulated keel for stability. Good deck working access and a safe and secure cockpit make her ideal for short handed cruising (most lines lead aft) and she's wheel steered, unlike many of the designs of this era
There are many differing interior layouts, this is a very seamanlike version, not hugely voluminous but everything has a place and she feels a lot bigger than she actually is. She presents well, is clean and fresh and having served her current owners well for the last 15 years she is now ashore and available for easy inspection

Register with Boatshed to see 77 extra photos of this Dehler 34 TOP Top Nova.Owners Comments
The vessel is a 1993 fin keeled, aft cockpit DEHLER 34 fast cruiser/racer sloop. The Dehler 34 VDS is regarded as a yacht with excellent sea keeping qualities coupled with practical accommodation. They are equally at home racing around the cans or more extensive cruising. The class has evolved over the years from the original and highly successful 1980s racing DB1 hull by the Van de Stadt (VDS) design team. Several variants were produced with different internal layouts and keel configurations. This one is the final 1990s Top Nova version with slightly taller rig and streamlined keel and rudder. She has an opening cockpit transom, aft cabin, and good wide side decks while still managing to provide 5 or 6 berths, good headroom in the saloon, a fixed chart table, good galley and heads compartment. The saloon has a central table and the settees make good sea berths. The cockpit is deep and well-protected and the coamings are angled comfortably.
Broker Comments:
Stepping onboard I found her to be very tidy, dry boat. She has been lavished with lots of upgrades recently.

Register with Boatshed to see 57 extra photos of this Dehler 34 TOP .This looks like a fantastically well equipped and really well looked after Dehler 34 Top!
Her upper deck, cockpit and rig are designed for rapid or harmonious cruising and she has one of the most comprehensive sail lockers that I've ever seen - sails for all types of sailing and conditions!
Down below should see comfort and style at the end of a long day's sailing - we recommend that you take an early look at her in Shoreham.
Direct from her owner:
Originally brought over to the UK from Belgium in 2014, she is the cruising version of the successful Dehler racing DB1. As a result, the Dehler 34 top is a very comfortable and fast cruiser. She's a fine example of the brand and is very well equipped.
In our ownership and she has been maintained to a very high standard and serviced annually. We equipped her to be one of the best Dehler 34s on the water. Now only up for sale to make way for a larger yacht so we can escape in our retirement for longer cruises.
The hull is GRP, moulded in one piece in white gel coat. The deck is GRP in white gel coat with painted side decks in panelled areas with grey non slip deck paint. The hull and deck are bonded together by Dehler to make one very strong glued and screwed to the hull with a black aluminium and rubbing strip.
Keel: The cast iron keel is epoxy treated structure stainless steel, bolted to the hull with stainless steel backing plates.
