Broker's Comments
What an amazing yacht! Very rarely does one get the chance to go on-board a Bowman 57 yacht. Only fourteen of these beautiful vessels were ever built and to date only nine are known to exist. Currently used as a sail training vessel for young people she is now available for only the second time since she was built. Until recently she was MCA coded and as such could easily be used commercially, or with some alterations and additions she would make a wonderful ocean cruising yacht, with vast amounts of space both on and below decks. An extensive sail wardrobe, good navigation equipment and a powerful engine are all ready to go. Alternatively, find somewhere peaceful to moor up and live on-board! I have seen examples of this yacht for sale at £250K, so at this price there is enormous scope to make your own mark on this lovely yacht.
