Broker's Comments

There is nothing quite like a Windy for build quality, the ride, the finish and attention to detail make them stand-out. This example is very nice for her age with extremely light useage because she was previously stored for approx ten years. Stored under-cover with heating etc her interior, seating and cushions are all fresh for their age. With only 197 engine hours she is being well maintained and has had recent additions such as batteries, new starter and alternator. She is a fast (34 knots max) powerful (200Hp) sports cruiser that is just as suited to coastal waters as she is on inland lochs & canals and now just requires a little tlc cleaning, polishing and provisioning. A brand-new cockpit cover and cooker are also included.

Further included in the sale is an impressive 3.5 Gross Ton road-going trailer which has also been recently overhauled; tyres, wheel bearings, braking system including rods, cables & shoes, new bed rollers and new towing hitch. This is cost-effective tow-away package which is now ready for fun cruising or water-sports activities.
