Description
Built in 1970 by Joyce Marine (Southampton), this robust and custom-designed sail yacht from strong aluminium is a true classic for serious sailors. She features a cutaway long keel, an aluminum hard chine hull with plating up to 25 mm, and a thoughtfully engineered structure that ensures stable, safe, and comfortable offshore performance.
Actually, a small winter project, as some winter maintenance/ dry dock will have to be done by new owner, she is a real bargain by lowered price.
Fully restored inside and out in 2017–2018, this yacht has been lovingly cared for and continually upgraded, with an impressive list of recent technical equipment – she’s ready to sail the world.
Actually, a small winter project, for the deck has to be repainted and the yearly boatyard / antifouling will be with the new owner - therefore a real BARGAIN by her reduced price (from 118.000)
2 Cabins (2+3) with heads + 1 toilet head, sleeps 6
The interior offers a bright, airy layout with high-quality refurbished white woodwork, creating a warm and spacious feel. Designed for comfortable long-term living aboard for 2 to 4 people, she combines solid construction with generous volume, rarely found on yachts of this size.
The large and secure center cockpit is fitted with a sprayhood, bimini and removable side and aft panels, creating a fully enclosed cockpit – ideal as an additional living space during colder seasons.
She comes with a full inbuilt high quality furnishment, lots of new, extras like dinghy and fully equipped (pots and pans).
- a fun to sail with and live on - you must see -
Kabinen
AFT CABIN:
Double bed on the right (1.20/0.90 x 1.90 m) and a bed (0.70 x 1.80 m) on the left, each with deep wardrobes, large wardrobe with shelf above on the left.
Bathroom on the right with only a sink (still connected, the toilet has been removed/to be renovated). Two opening rear windows and an opening on the deck, four portholes on the sides, one ventilation in the bathroom.
FORWARD AREA:
Chart table on the left, with storage drawers underneath, shelves on the side and behind (electricity) and bench.
On the right, a fully equipped kitchen with a continuous worktop, drawers underneath and open shelves above, designed as a counter open to the salon.
The kitchen includes a refrigerator (109 l/27 gal.), a stainless steel sink, a gas water heater Truma, and a gas stove with oven.
A dedicated cupboard for pots and pans is integrated into a bench, and a wet locker is located near the stairs, ideal for storing weather gear.
On the right, in front of the kitchen, a bed 2.0 m x 0.7 m alongside and a bench towards the forward bulkhead, both with wardrobes.

There are shelves at the head of the bed, side racks, and two full-height wardrobes at the foot of the bed. The entrance to the private bathroom is located on the right side of the cabin. Rare to find on yachts of this size: a generously sized bathroom with a full shower cabin, a standard-sized sink with a mirror storage above, and an additional full-length mirror :-)
Four opening side windows and a large hatch on the deck provide excellent ventilation and plenty of natural light, making the forward cabin bright and airy throughout the day.
