Broker's Comments

This motor yacht is an exceptional example of the highly regarded Dale Nelson. Rugged sea keeping performance combined with luxurious interiors are their hallmark and Isla is no exception. With hand fitted teak interiors Dale Nelsons simply ooze build quality. Throughout her relatively short time in commission she has had extensive and thorough maintenance regardless of cost. Many of her fittings date to an extensive re-fit in 2005/6 including new upholstery, carpets, curtains, electronics and generator. Mechanically she appears to be as new. Her keen and competant owner regularly cruises the Western and Southern coasts of Ireland in her, yet she looks smarter than many which never leave the marina! She is keenly for sale as her owner requires a new Dale Nelson!
