Parkstone Bay Yachts
1972 Elizabethan 30 Cruiser Racer
2019 Nanni N2.21 20HP Diesel - 84 hours
Full Service History
The Elizabethan 30, designed by the renowned David Thomas, is celebrated for her elegant lines, excellent performance, and impressive seakeeping. Originally conceived as a competitive racer, the E30 has since earned a strong reputation as a quick, dependable, and highly capable cruising yacht. Yachting Monthly praised the design as "a well-balanced yacht that feels very stiff… with strong handling and good performance, particularly when the wind picks up."
MISTWEAVE is an exceptional example of the class. She benefits from a complete interior refurbishment in 2025, a major refit exceeding £30,000 between 2011 - 2018, and - critically- a full condition survey in 2025 which she passed with flying colours, along with a professional rig inspection certifying her rig fully fit for service.
Her maintenance history is superb, supported by decades of documented care, structural upgrades, mechanical improvements, and cosmetic refits.
