Remarks

Arguably the most popular production yacht on the Norfolk Broads, and offering the preferred combination of shallow fin keel and fractional rig, plus a Yanmar diesel engine on shaft drive, this Pegasus 700 ticks all the right boxes! Recently (winter 2021/22) upgraded with a new Jeckells Mainmate mainsail stowage/stack pack system with lazyjacks, new UV strip on the genoa and shore power, this cruiser/racer is now unexpectedly offered for sale due to a change of plans.
