About this Contest 44CS

English

Pauline is one of the last yachts of the succesfull Contest 44CS range and a rare opportunity on the market. She has been meticulously maintained and is ready to set sail. Pauline is easy to handle with her in-boom furling main sail and furling genoa. The yacht offers great comfort due to her clever optimized center cockpit layout with G-shaped seating in the saloon, a separate chart table, a spacious owner's cabin in the aft with an ensuite bathroom, and a guest cabin in the bow with also a spacious, ensuite bathroom. please note: the standing rigging is replaced in 2020 and navigational equipment is new from 2019. In 2021, the hull was resprayed, again in the typical "majestic blue" Contest yachts color, off course with an Awl-Grib paint system. A new MaxProp propeller was mounted in 2023, together with a new gearbox. Pauline is in as good as new condition and an absolute 'Must-see". Please note that this brochure is preliminary.
