BROKERAGE ACTIVITY

We have several items of interesting brokerage news about Starlights, with more owners approaching us to sell their yachts; also an interesting Moody 336 is  now listed with us and a traditional Fisher 30 ketch of the 70s, both in lovely condition.

 

Starlights – shortly to be listed is one of the earlier 35s which is in excellent condition, with many upgrades, renewals and loving care and attention from the owner – based in Chichester harbour with recent sails, replaced rig, regular and careful maintenance, and so on – we know this boat well – watch this space !

We are now dealing with two of the Starlight 39s (1991 and’94) which are  coming on line shortly; the earlier Starlight being based Chichester  is very special indeed, with a high standard of maintenance and extremely well selected gear and equipment; she is blessed with the larger 58hp Mermaid engine, replaced 2008; all will be listed later next week.

The later 39 was built to a high and demanding spec for the first owner, with interesting and expensive gear! – now has a bow thruster and many attractive extras ; however, ill health has resulted in very little use during the past decade, hence a maintenance program is overdue, resulting in a lower asking price.

Moody 366 – this very special Moody is still with the original enthusiastic owner and is extremely well equipped; she has had an unusually high standard of care and maintenance and has all the usual Bill Dixon qualities;  this is the first of his later designs to have really good looks and a competitive performance, with an effective hull shape and rig –  based in Torbay and shortly to be listed  – keen buyers should contact me without undue delay!

Interestingly I was deeply involved and indeed responsible for the development of the 336 during my later years with Marine Projects in Plymouth, so I am dealing enthusiastically with the sale of this  rather special yacht.

Fisher 30 – built in 1977, this yacht will attract those buyers seeking comfort and elegance, traditional qualities generally only available in these older yachts.

Plenty of well finished wood -work down below and all the convenience of a ketch rig, providing easier sail-handling – lots of storage in very deep lockers, especially in the cockpit; new upholstery further enhances the elegance and comfort of this yacht.  A recent 33hp Venus engine provides plenty reserve of power when required.
