Broker's Comments
The Hardy Motor Sailer, in her day, set the standard for this type of easily handled pleasure yacht. For many owners she combines the best of leisurely motor cruising with the increased versatility of sailing in estuary and coastal conditions. She can comfortably take the ground and with her easily lowered mast and shallow draught can also explore inland waterways, .This vessel has been very well looked after by her present owners, who have owned many larger yachts, both sail and motor, over the years. She is now reluctantly for sale due to her owner's advancing years and failing health.

Note: She must be sold, therefore keen offers on the asking price will be considered.
