About this Contest 42 Ketch

English

Parkstone Bay Yachts is thrilled to present 'CHRISTINA MAY'.  The Contest 42 ketch is a prime example of a 'blue water' cruising yacht. The history of this yacht is testament to that. The ketch rig offers flexibility and balanced sailing and the deep centre cockpit provides great protection.

Much of the interior is original with Contest's superb joinery still in excellent condition. The original theme doesn't stop there, some of the navigation equipment is also original as is the upholstery, which shows the level of care from the current and previous owners. 

CHRISTINA MAY is also very spacious, as can be found with the amount of berths onboard which includes: two doubles, three single bunk beds along with the occasional saloon berths making her ideal for longer distance sailing. The owners cabin also includes an en-suite heads. 

The ideal vessel for those who want to adventure further afield whilst having a great level of space and storage! 

A beauty that must be viewed to be fully appreciated, currently lying in Dartmouth. 

Contact us to arrange a viewing.
