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.
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 -
Cabins
AFT CABIN:
Double berth starbord (1,20/0,90 x 1,90 m) and one berth (0,70 x 1,80 m) port side each with deep lockers, big wardrobe with shelve on top on portside.

FOREWARD AREA:
Chart table on port side, with storage drawers underneath, shelves aside and behind (electrics) and seat bench.
To starboard side a fully equipped galley line with a continuous worktop, drawers underneath, and open shelving above, designed as an open counter toward the saloon.
The galley includes a refrigerator (109 l/ 27 gal.), a stainless steel sink, a Truma gas water heater, and a gas stove with oven.
A dedicated locker for pots and pans is integrated into a seat bench, and a wet locker is located near the companionway, ideal for storing foul-weather gear.

There are shelves at the head of the bed, side storage racks, and two full-height hanging lockers at the foot of the berth.
