Broker's Comments

We are pleased to be presenting this Colvic Liberator 35, a spacious cruiser racer, with lovely lines. Built in 1980 and commissioned in 1981 and designed with comfort in mind, down below and on deck, a genuine cruiser with racer performance when you want it.

The spacious cockpit and wide decks, provide plenty of space to work, with all lines led aft for ease of handling. With plenty of seating in the large cockpit for relaxing.

The accommodation provides everything needed for a family or crew, sleeping 6/7, with a sizeable galley, separate heads with a shower and forward cabin. The C shaped saloon, converts to a double berth, with a small double behind the nav station.

The yacht is well equipped and has a recently refurbished engine, wheel steering and plenty of sails and navigation instruments including a chart plotter and recently installed AIS. The owner comments 'the boat is easy to handle and sails well'.

If you would like to know more or to organise a personal viewing, please contact our office and we would be delighted to help.
