Sailing Yacht - Finnsailer 29 Foot - 6 Berth - Diesel Motor Sailer

Fiskars Finnsailer 29 - Bought 2018, for £10K - Currently on the hard for 2 years during Covid. Health reasons forcing reluctant sale - open to offers for a quick sale. We (two adults, two children) lived on her during our house renovations in 2018 - worked well as a house boat. The mast is easily removed for canal travel, and the split fore and aft cabin allows for two private spaces. Max berth of 6, comfortable 4.
Perkins Diesel engine provided us with robust and reliable motor sailing around the Solent.After being out of the water for two seasons, it now needs a good gel coat and anti-foul before going back in the water. Batteries also need to be recharged/ replaced. No known faults other than the onboard refrigerator's compressor stopped in 2019 and needs replacement - we never bothered as a bag of ice in the bottom of the unit did the job. But this boat is being sold 'as-is', so please drop by the marina an inspect for yourself. I will be onsite at the marina for any in person enquiries.
