Broker's Comments

Grand Banks for sale in France. Boatshed Paris is pleased to offer this TSDY trawler yacht for sale, with moorings, in Paris and on the Normandy coast (one or other possibly transferrable to a new owner).

I was really impressed by the evident level of care and maintenance our vendor applies to his Grand Banks. It was a real pleasure to find a motor yacht from 1973 being so well looked after. Our vendor has moorings close to Paris and on the Normandy coast and regularly cruises both the coasts and inland waterways. With its air draught of 3.4m, even the Freycinet canals are navigable should you want to take the inland route down to the Med. Also a comfortable boat for full-time liveaboard with its huge “lounge” and great outdoor spaces.

For more information and appointments to view, please contact Pascal, your Boatshed broker at Boatshed Paris.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
