Broker's Comments
Boatshed Essex are pleased to be presenting this classic Neptune 33 sloop, a traditional motor sailer, with good sailing characteristics. With a proven build quality to Lloyds registered standards, this version appears to have been well maintained and presents as a tidy, capable motor cruiser.
With a large, semi enclosed deep, safe-feeling cockpit and helm, providing plenty of space and stowage for cruising and entertaining and good all round views. The wide side decks provide a secure platform for going forward. This version has a more recent engine, wheel steering and wind steering and new anchor and chain.
The spacious accommodation provides an open saloon and large table with plenty of seating. The galley provides space for preparing meals, everything needed and for any longer distance cruising. The private forward cabin has a spacious V berth and plenty of stowage. The heads, with a sliding sink, is enclosed and separated by 2 doors and occupies the width of the boat.
