Remarks

This late example of the ever popular Pegasus 700 has the highly desirable combination of a wing keel and fractional rig. With great accommodation for a couple or small family, she is an ideal cruiser/racer for the Norfolk Broads. Owned by the current, and only second, owner since 2011, she is now sadly for sale due to the owner's advancing years. The owner informs us that she's a fast boat which is very easy to helm and which he regularly sails single handed. Whilst she does require pre-season cosmetic tidying (general external cleaning, woodwork varnishing, antifouling, etc.), this is reflected in the asking price, making her a great proposition for someone who's willing to lavish a little effort on her.

TENDER: An inflatable dinghy and 2hp Yamaha electric outboard (little used) are available by separate negotiation.
