Remarks

Thoroughly refitted over the past couple of years, this Pegasus 700 is now sadly for sale due to ill health. Along with her desirable fractional rig and shallow draft lifting keel, she benefits from having recently had a new mainsail with StackPack system, new mast, new 8hp Tohatsu outboard, new battery and engine electrics, new cabin cushions throughout and new cockpit cushions! Offering good sailing performance, the Pegasus 700 remains an ever-popular low maintenance alternative to a traditional Broads yacht, and this yacht looks to be an excellent example!

MOORING: It's understood that the vessel's current southern Broads mooring may be transferable to the purchaser subject to agreement from the mooring owner (currently as of 20th April 2020 being paid monthly, approximately £1,267 per annum).
