Capable long distance cruiser

Built in Holland to Lloyds standards the Contest 38s is a solid and proven off shore centre cockpit cruiser and very capable of handling long passages. Ketch rigged with a good sail wardrobe including cruising chute and a water maker it wouldn’t take too much work to make her ready to cross oceans in the future.

Her current owners sailed her from the UK down in to the Med and have enjoyed 23 years of sailing but now in their eighties it is time to reluctantly sell and pass her on to new owners for new adventures.
