Seaspray Marine is proud to promote this Aluminium blue water performance cruiser for sale. She is brand new to the market and currently actively cruising the waters of Langkawi, Malaysia. She has been consistently lived on, and maintained, and is in amazing condition.
This is your chance to purchase a sturdy and robust fast cruiser, custom built with great strength in mind, but also relatively light and with attentive sailing performance.
Her owner has kept the yacht in a really good condition, with many upgrades during the years, and a high level of upkeep as needed. The current owner bought her in 2007 and has made her a reliable and safe bluewater cruiser. There is a large double V berth, and two double aft cabins, tucked in under the cockpit. There is a wheel house to shelter from rain or sun, and a cockpit with a fold away table, where entertaining is easy and sailing functionality is practicle and every thing needed for shorthanded or single handed sailing is accessible.
This aluminium vessel have a high resale value thanks to the long life and high durability of the material and the quality of the inventory - making overall cost of ownership low.
Habbeké Shipyard, established in 1966, has more than fifty years experience of quality shipbuilding. The wharf builds exclusively in aluminium, and enjoys an excellent reputation for innovation, quality and service. These characteristics were recognised and honoured when Habbeké was awarded the Dutch Aluminium Prize.
Highly trained workers, all of whom have years of education and experience in the Dutch Metal Industry, staff the company; in fact most of the staff have been with the company for 40 or more years.
Aluminium is without question the most well reputed material for the construction of a robust yacht. Marine grade aluminium has such high impact resistance, that this vessel can withstand a collision that would seriously damage other (fiberglass) vessels. Aluminium is by far the lowest maintenance material that could be used for boat manufacturing. Residual values for aluminium boats are high.
She was recently antifouled in 2022.
She has all the gear, and is fully equipped for immediate blue water sailing. She is ready to go.
