Rondo sails beautifully and lives up to the Sadler 32 reputation for a solid sea going cruiser / racer.
Since 2010 she has been steadily refurbished. She has a new Beta 25 engine installation by Richardsons Boatyard (2023). Her epoxy sheathed hull is in good condition. Rudder bearings have been rebuilt, and the keel has been re-seated recently.
In the last 10 years she has had new standing and running rigging, with the main converted to slab reefing, all by Andy Freemantle in Cardiff. The bulk of the saloon interior was completely rebuilt in Bristol. New switches and fuses were installed along with LED interior lighting. A new sprayhood completes the work done to date.
Most of the time I have sailed Rondo single handed, relying on her kindly nature. Her new engine gives her a new lease of life and real confidence to the new owners
