Harrison Butler Sloop 30

Keine Angaben vorhanden

Designed by Harrison Butler and built by the acclaimed Whisstocks of Woodbridge, Lady Mary is a charming classic cruising yacht of carvel construction, with a slim and graceful canoe stern. She features a safe, comfortable self-draining cockpit, uncluttered decks, and thanks to her generous beam and cleverly utilised space below, she is well suited to a couple looking to do longer passages. During her current ownership of over 40 years, she has clearly been loved and a comprehensive restoration has been carried out, but the time has come to pass custodianship of this very special yacht to an enthusiastic new owner. Anyone looking for a practical, highly useable classic sailing yacht with an excellent pedigree should put her on the top of their list!

Additional Comments
Her current owners carried out a comprehensive and extensive keel-up restoration over a ten-year period which was completed in 1992. During their ownership, she has been regularly maintained and upgraded with expensive items such as self-tailing winches and a modern engine, and looks to be in very solid ready to enjoy condition. An impressive folder covering her restoration and history is included within the sale and her providence is well established, with a number of surveys on file, the last being carried out in 2018 and stating she was 'built to a remarkably high standard and has been generally well maintained and has been extensively refitted and updated over the years'.
