Broker's Comments
A very well maintained and spec'd Contessa 28. The owner has spent £14,000 over the past 2 years getting her into a brilliant condition including a new 16HP engine, new standing rigging, a major rewire, new guard wire and much more.
She has been very well kept internally with some cracking in the forhead cabin upholstery being the only negative I could see.
These boat details are subject to contract.
