Broker's Comments
We are pleased at Boatshed Cornwall to list this Contessa 34 for sale. Introduced in 1982, the Contessa 34 was launched as a fast cruising version of the OOD34. A longer cast iron keel and considerably more hull weight were combined with the legendary Contessa build quality to produce a sturdy, well-built cruising yacht.
This Contessa 34 has been upgraded and maintained over recent years. As well as recent rigging improvements and a new engine and saildrive fitted in 2020, the ongoing maintenance includes:
Hull antifouled 2022
New carpets 2022
NEW shore power and AC consumer outlets (2023)
Renewed anchor (2023)
Renewed anchor chain (2023)
NEW swim platform (2023)
NEW Davits (2023)
The interior layout provides good accommodation and is well appointed with blue upholstery and carpets. With a fore cabin, aft cabin and a spacious saloon.
The addition of an Iroko swim platform and davit arrangement, configured to accept solar panels really has made this yacht extremely versitile for cruising.
These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
