Whilst the limelight may fall on her stablemates the Contessa 26 and Contessa 32, the Contessa 28 has many positive attributes of it's own. From the pen of Doug Peterson, the author of many successful Contessa designs, the 28 is a great sailing yacht with the added advantage of feeling significantly larger internally than the 26 but with only 2 feet of actual extra length. This extra comfort sets them apart and makes life with one that bit more comfortable for a family while retaining the ability to be easily sailed singlehanded. Less well known the 28's are also less numerous but still with o...

Miss Fidget is of the classic Ron Holland designed Superseal 26 type, ideal for coastal cruising and popular in club racing circles. This example has a particular claim to fame in that her first owner decided to sail her across the Atlantic, making her probably the only one of her type to attempt such a voyage. Her original log book detailing this passage comes with the boat. More recently the current owner has often taken her to the east coast and back from the Isle of Wight proving that she is still a more than capable example of her type.
With her fully lifting keel the draft reduces to a...

OWNERS COMMENTS
Jakdor is our beloved 1980 twin keeled Westerly Konsort 29. Sadly due to a change of circumstances we have not been able to use her this last season and have therefore reluctantly put her up for sale. She had a full survey in June 2023 which found her to be a good example, clean and structurally sound and valued at £18,000 (survey available on request). Since then all survey recommendations have been completed including a new fuel tank and gauge, new clear bulb fuel filter and new shaft seal. She also benefits from the additions of a wireless wind unit, new sail cover and sola...

Bobin is a very clean example of the ever popular Merry Fisher 695 type. These boats are known for their versatility leading BoatAdvice.com.au to describe them as the "SUV's of the water".
Bobin displays this well having facilities for both fishing and family weekends. The comfortable rear cockpit has removable seating and table or can be used as a sundeck with the additional cushions available. The saloon comprises the helm, which benefits from the renowned good visibility of the type, and an internal seating area which can be turned into a double berth. Behind the helm is a food prepa...

The Cobra 700 was designed by the British maritime architect David Feltham in the early eighties. Cobra Yachts Ltd. built nearly 100 of these.
'Fair Share' has the feel of a much bigger boat whilst remaining extremely attractive in a design that compares favourably with the modern yachts of today. She is ideally sailed as a small family boat. She is safe and sturdy with a top speed, under sail, of nearly 6 kts.
Despite being only 23 ft. (7.01m) Fair Share has a headroom of 5’9 ft (1.75m) which is extraordinary for her size. Combine this with her uncluttered decks and teak interior and she...

Catalac catamarans are renowned for their sturdy build and are widely respected making them a hidden gem in today’s boat marketplace and Duplicat is no exception. She must be one of the best value cruising catamarans available today.
Duplicat has been rigged for single-handed sailing with all lines leading aft plus she has the luxury of in-mast furling and a roller reefing genoa. Her current owner has sailed her extensively from the North East of the UK to the Scilly Isles.
The cavernous, well designed interior makes Duplicat an ideal liveaboard and the Eberspacher heating ensures comfortabl...

Good Grieff is a Hunter Legend 33 designed by Glen Henderson and could be best described as the ultimate Family Coastal Cruising Yacht. The generous interior consists of a generous saloon plus two large double berths fore and aft. The galley is to port with heads opposite to starboard. She sports a B&G rig patented by Bergström and Ridder two Swedish aeronautical engineers. This design obviates the need for a back stay thus facilitates a larger roach on the mainsail to add extra power when needed. Although, billed as a cruising yacht, in 14 knots of wind with full sails Good Grief achieved 5 ...

Ida is a Fortuna 46ft auxiliary Bermudan Sloop designed and built in 1971 by De Vries Lentsch Het Fort Netherlands but underwent a major re-fit by the current owner in 2012 in readiness for off-grid ocean crossings. This refit was extensive and she was surveyed and valued at that time for insurance purposes at £150,000
The Re-fit was from the bare hull upwards including 50mm of insulating foam to the accommodation hull and deck. Following this Ida was rewired throughout with tinned cable and wire before installation of electronics & navigation suite, entertainment system, heating, charging sy...

Quicksilver 855 Weekend in sparkling condition, the 'weekend' in the title is misleading as this cruiser is comfortable at anchor for extended stays with it's newly fitted auto inverter. So many excellent features have been crammed into this boat which was highly spec'd from new* including the Active Engine Trim for extra economy and many extras added since. Full service history from new and April 2022 Survey available.
This is a real 'drivers boat' with amazing 360 visibility from the helm position whether seated or standing. The slightly asymmetric coach roof gives priority to the starboar...

One owner for last 16 years who has meticulously maintained and upgraded Fantasea with no expense spared. It would be easier to list what is not included with this boat than to list what is - see below.
The Jeanneau Sun Oddysey 40.3 is the quintessential family cruising yacht and is happy just pottering around the Solent or for the more adventurous serious offshore sailing. The current owner has sailed her extensively along the South Coast including trips to Northern France, The Channel Islands, The Isle of Scilly and the republic of Ireland.
Fully equipped for single-handed sailing with al...
