Broker comments
The Glacer Asmus 51 was designed for long-distance cruising by the well renowned German designer Horst Glacer. The hull was built at Sandmeier, Hedem in aluminium and was equipped at Asmus-Yard in Glückstadt. The roomy centre cockpit offers shelter in any kind of weather. Only one seacock in the hull is servicing all water outlets. Seawater intake for cooling is made by means of a seatube. A very noteworthy safety aspect!
The rigg built by Reckman is solid at any windforce. In spite of the relatively high weight of the boat, she is an excellent and fast passage-maker.
