Broker's Comments
The Contessa 28 offers an excellent blend of solid performance and useful accommodation, offering up to six berths. The 28 was more modern than earlier models with an improved interior and moulded headlining, often considered an earlier rival to the Sadler 29.
This is a fair example of her class fitted with an 11hp Petter Mini Twin diesel engine.
