Her Perkins diesel engines (1970) are proven, reliable workhorses - simple, robust and easy to service, reflecting the spirit of long-lasting and dependable navigation.
The interior exudes warmth and tradition, with fine woodwork and a thoughtful layout designed for comfortable living aboard. The combination of a strong steel hull and elegant lines makes this yacht both practical and full of charm.
