COMMENTS
1974 H28 yacht, renowned for its seaworthiness, stability and comfortable cruising capabilities. Constructed from GRP, she measures 9.02m in length and is ideally suited for coastal cruising and relaxed weekends on the water. Powered by a 20hp Bukh DV20 diesel engine with shaft drive, cruising comfortably at 5-6 knots. Tiller steering from the cockpit provides a traditional sailing experience with excellent feel and control. Below deck the interior is warm and practical, featuring carpet lined cabin and LED lighting to the galley, creating a comfortable atmosphere for extended stays aboard. The vessel is supported by electrical system comprising 2 x 6V 226Ah deep-cycle batteries and a 1000CCA cranking battery installed in January 2023, with 2 x 100W solar panels fitted in September 2023 providing dependable charging capability when cruising or at anchor. Vessel has benefited from continuous maintenance and thoughtful upgrades. The lee cloth and sail cover were replaced in early 2024, the headsail UV strip was renewed in October 2026, and fresh antifoul was applied in June 2026. The engine is serviced annually with the next one booked for start of November 2026.
Proven design, sensible upgrades and a documented maintenances history. Vessel presents as a tidy and capable yacht ready for her next owner to step aboard and enjoy.
