Register with Boatshed to see 89 extra photos of this Hunter Horizon 273 Twin keels.Boatshed Essex are pleased to be presenting this Hunter Horizon 273, which was the last model in the popular Hunter range. They have a reputation as comfortable cruising boats, with a good sailing performance, partly due to the Hunter 'twin fin' keel re design. The twin keels also provide wider sailing opportunities, for a boat capable of drying-out, cruising rivers and estuaries, but also able to make extended coastal passages.   The running rigging is led aft and well thought through, being manageable for single handed and family sailors alike.  The boat is tidy, with spacious accommodation that is comfortable to use both at sea and in port and with a separate aft double cabin When I visited the boat I was struck by its great potential for good sailing performance and spacious, comfortable accommodation.  With many uses and positive features, this boat has lots to offer singlehanded and group sailors or small families alike. The owners comment 'the boat sails well, with a good turn of speed and handles well in close quarters'. If you would like any further information or to arrange a personal viewing, then please contact our office and we would be pleased to help. These boat details are subject to contract.

Register with Boatshed to see 144 extra photos of this Wasa 38 .This is a great looking and very imposing Wasa 38 yacht! Her sleek lines and Scandinavian build suggest a great performance, couple with strength and build quality. Her upper deck is spacious and allows for lots of crew movement and rig adjustment on the hop - there is a comprehensive rig and her owner testifies to her speed. Down below, we have a large, open and voluminous interior - well laid out in a fairly conventional way, with room for family or large crew to rest and relax in style. She needs a good clean through and there will be jobs to do - some will comment upon her upper deck teak, but she's priced to sell and anyone looking for solid performance, with creature comforts would be recommended to come and visit her at Eastbourne. VAT was paid at import and we can provide evidence. These boat details are subject to contract.

Laurent Giles 38 REF#344013

2025-07-04 19:46:13| Boatshed.com Recent Boats

Register with Boatshed to see 118 extra photos of this Laurent Giles 38 .The Laurent Giles 38 is, (in my opinion) one of the most elegant offshore cruising boats there is and finding one in this condition is just an absolute joy! Undoubtedly her iconic design, original build quality and traditional craftsmanship make her what she is however what sets this particular Laurent Giles 38 apart is how lucky she is! To have an owner with boatyard and a skilled workforce meant she had a full refit in 2000 and since then she has been sailed, meticulously maintained and absolutely and unconditionally loved! I would wax lyrical about her all day but instead I would like to invite you to come and have a look for yourself. When I step aboard I just don't want to leave, except under sail into a stiff breeze! Survey (insurance) 2024 - summarises: This Laurent Giles 38 is a very strong and well-built vessel, designed by a well-recognised naval architect. As per her previous Survey, she was presented in exceptionally good condition for her age, and there were no obvious serious or urgent issues found during the inspection. Very unusually, she is unrigged and stored ashore under cover when out of commission each year and she has always been subject to a continuing and very thorough maintenance programme by a caring and experienced owner over the last decade These boat details are subject to contract. Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.This Laurent Giles 38 has been personally photographed and viewed by Corinne Gillard of Boatshed IOW.
