Broker's Comments
On a superb residential mooring just a mile from Tower Bridge, this Ketch, designed by Van de Stadt, is very strongly built. The steel structure, combined with the 80 horsepower engine, gives great comfort when at sea. The ketch rig makes her extremely flexible and she has a superb working deck with a deep cockpit.
Down below, she has bags of character and a layout that should appeal to those looking to do some long term cruising or, alternatively, a have very cost effective London pied-a-terre. And with the 2012 Olympics less than two years away, residential moorings like this will become almost impossible to find.
This is a true blue water cruiser. The steel hull is designed for ocean sailing and the fit-out with pilot house and a Refleks diesel heater makes her suitable for the coldest of latitudes.
The owners have cruised extensively in the Mediterranean and now want to explore the UK canals. However, she does need some TLC - mainly cosmetic - and will require two new headsails.
She is moored in Docklands, just a mile from the City and a stone's throw from Canary Wharf. Subject to agreement with marina management, this coveted residential mooring is available to the new owner.
