Marketing Description
'Spirit of Zoya' is a safe and capable cruising yacht built in Finland and fitted out by Lito Marin of Finland in 1997. The vessel has been in the same ownership since 2008 and has enjoyed trips to the northern Isles, the Netherlands and the West Coast of Scotland. With berths for 6 she is an ideal family cruiser but is equally appealing as a couples boat. With all the lines led aft and her current sail plan, she is a joy to sail short handed. Although a very quick boat she has never been raced. Well maintained inboard Nanni diesel, in mast furling mainsail, inner and outer roller furling headsails and a comprehensive electronic navigation package, If you are looking for a genuine blue water cruiser then 'Spirit of Zoya' should be on your list.
