Swift 18 Trailer Sailer Beautiful First Sailing Yacht Ready To Go

Amélie is a safe & fun small sailing yacht, ideal for adventurers, families and first time sailors alike. Pop her on her trailer and take her wherever you wish (the trailer is also a great money saver when it comes to boat storage, even keep her on your drive if you like!). As a Swift 18 she is said to be unsinkable thanks to her extensive foam linings. Plus with the lifting keel she’ll easily explore skinny waters, requiring less than a foot to float in! I’ve enjoyed owning her over the last 5 years and taken great care to ensure she is in tip top condition.

In 2015 she benefited from a brand new stack pack & lazy jack setup (making raising and lowering the sail as easy as pie). In 2016 a complete refit of the cabin was undertaken, with re-furbished cushions, new shelving installed and refreshed headlining. She also benefited from a new anchor and chain. All cushions and perishables etc have been stored at home during the winter months. Her equipment is extensive for a small yacht: Swift 18 - constructed in 1982, with a range of documentation Professionally anti-fouled (including keel) in Summer 2018 Furling genoa & stack-packed mainsail (both washed & repaired in 2019 and unused since) Spare main & genoa (in so so condition) Yamaha F4A 4hp engine (serviced in 2017 and rarely used) Outboard stand (for storing Outboard ashore) Yamaha outboard bag (for storing outboard in the cabin) 22L fuel tank (new in 2015) Brand new fuel transfer syphon (unused) Spare rudder Avon dinghy (seen better days, in need of attention and without oars) Spinnaker/whisker pole (although no spinnaker) Mast on tabernacle (for easy raising/lowering for transport etc) Raymarine Tiller Pilot (ST1000) TillerClutch 4.5kg galvanised crown/stock anchor + 2m chain and rode Cabin lighting Depth sounder Road trailer (unbraked) Exide Marine Equipment Battery 450Wh, 40Ah, 12v (new in 2017, stored ashore and kept topped up) Solar Panel to top up battery 2 Falcon Mugs Campingaz Bistro stove (brand new and unused) Boom pre-setup with 2 reefing lines & outhaul Kicking strap Compass Winch handle - to operate keel and winches Trailer winch handle Amélie is currently on her trailer in Hoo Ness Yacht Club available to view by appointment.
