This Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 34.2 at £43,500 is a 1998 shallow fin keel version, just arrived back in Cornwall from a lengthy cruise to Portugal and back. She is afloat at present but about to come ashore in early November.

This Moody S31 will be available for sale very shortly in Hampshire. The photos here were taken in late October 2022 and represent a very fastidious owner's idea of "end of season condition". Full inventory details will be included shortly.

PRELIMINARY DETAILS ONLY

The Feeling 286 is a modern styled fast cruiser, this 'owners' version having one of the best double aft cabins you will find in a yacht this small. She offers excellent sailing performance plus an attractive and light interior. Nominally six berth, she is ideal for two to four - actually cruising with six would be a real squeeze. Just lifted ashore in S. Devon, full details and photos available shortly.

Is it a Swan? No, though also from Finland at £39,000 it's a Maestro 35 that shares much of Nautor Swan's build quality. A seriously seaworthy fast cruiser with deep lead keel, and a good double aft cabin under the cockpit. Just brought ashore in Cornwall.

This twin keel British Hunter Channel 31 at a reduced price of £37,500 is a David Thomas design that offers a remarkable combination of easy handling with good performance and the ability to dry out on her twin keels. Hunter always referred to these boats as "twin fin" rather than "bilge keel" to emphasise their performance. She is one of the few boats of this size to achieve a RCD Category 'A' rating even for the twin keeled version. She is very well equipped with electric windlass, chartplotter and digital radar, cabin heating and very good sails. Afloat in Devon.

PRICE REDUCED

One of the very last Westerly Seahawk 35 yachts built, this twin keel example has been in the present ownership for 18 years, and is now reluctantly for sale due to the owners inability to use her fully. Afloat in Cornwall, but due for liftout for a month or two in early November.

This Moody 31 Mk II from 1989 at a reduced price of £23,750 has excellent accommodation including a good-sized aft double cabin. This is one of the later-built Mk IIs, which have a sugarscoop stern.

The owners have now bought a larger yacht, hence the recent price reduction - she offers really good value. Ashore in Hampshire.

PRICE REDUCED

At £28,000 a well equipped Contessa 32 - a classic cruiser-racer. This 1979 example has been in the same ownership for 30 years, has been re-engined, and has some nice additions such as a removable Neptune windvane self-steering gear, and telescopic aluminium beaching legs that can stow below. Afloat in Plymouth.

The Bavaria 34 is actually closer to 36 ft overall rather than 34 ft, and in the words of 'PBO' magazine, is ".... an ideal starter boat for a young family, as well as an easy to handle cruiser for a mature couple often cruising alone." This fin keel example has in-mast furling and is a well looked after and lightly used yacht

with a good cruising inventory including a recently installed bowthruster, large colour plotter and other new electronics. Afloat in Devon.

This sloop rigged 1979 Westerly 33 at £21,500 is a well maintained example of these solid, powerful cruising yachts.
