Brokers Comments

This Seal 28 is a well built fin keel yacht that has been maintained and upgraded throughout her life & is presented in excellent internal condition for her age. She offers a light bright and comparatively spacious saloon & main cabin as well as a separate, but good size aft twin cabin that would be perfect for the children. She has many home comforts including a compact but useful galley and a separate heads compartment & she has been recently re-upholstered & her woodwork has been refurbished. It also has a full canvass cockpit enclosure which can link the aft cabin to the main cabin. She also comes with a refrigerated cool box & her saloon provides a cleverly devised navigation station with chart table and all nav aids close at hand. On deck, she is also well equipped with many features including a fully serviceable set of sails, two Lewmar self-tailing winches.. She also has two cavernous cockpit lockers for storing fenders, warps, canopies etc.

In its most recent life, this Seal 28 has been used as Air B n B accommodation and her condition reflects the high standards required to do this. It was very successful for her Owner and had many bookings in this guise. She is sadly now only offered for sale due to bereavement.

With her comprehensive inventory & equipment list coupled with her solid build and efficient layout, this Seal 28 offers everything you could need for fun sailing around coastal waters whilst still being very capable of cruising further afield. She has plenty of onboard space for safe & fun cruising with family & friends, but is equally manageable single handed. She is currently lying in Southampton & viewing can be arranged through Aspire Boat Sales.
