SWANHAVEN: Looking for a large volume fibreglass sloop?

Description

PRICE REDUCED FROM $59,000 TO $50,000!

Swanhaven is a Roberts design & was built by boat builder Robert Swan as his personal boat. The canoe stern hull is solid GRP to the deck with foam-filled glass sides. Decking & cabin tops are made of timber, complemented with aluminium topping & railings. LOA is 16 metres.

Swanhaven has an extensive documented cruising history, including a trip to the South Pacific.

The vessel boasts a spacious interior with a full-sized galley & dining area, a pilot house, a forward cabin with four V-berths, and an aft cabin with a double bed. There is also a full-sized shower & toilet.

The engine has done 100 hours since being fully reconditioned & the gearbox was replaced at the same time. All paperwork is available to confirm this. Some standing rigging has been replaced, and a sheltered helm area has been added with lifting equipment for the tender.

A solar system with an inverter provides AC & DC power.

The current owner has comfortably lived aboard for the past five years but is now moving overseas.

A lot of the hard work has been done, including some interior modifications, but if you’re handy, value can be added with further cosmetic upgrades.

If you’re looking for a live-aboard with plenty of space, or a larger vessel to cruise to the islands, consider stepping aboard Swanhaven.
