This boat is for sale via a sealed bids Auction to Clarke & Carter by mid-day on the 23rd May 2025. The sale is strictly as is where is, without any warranty of condition or description. A popular van de Stadt design from the 70s, these small family cruisers have fast performance and well proven sea kindliness. Although modest by modern standards, the interior has useful accommodation and standing headroom. This example was laid up ashore in her present ownership for a number of years. The boat has remained dry inside during her laid-up time, but is now at the point where she needs bringing up to date and cosmetically improving. She is priced to sell and would make an excellent project for someone with wide horizons in mind but a narrow budget.
