Broker's Comments

The Horizon 273 was the last model in the popular Horizon 27 range of bilge keeled cruising yachts. They can sleep six but would be more realistically suited to a cruising couple with children or for weekending for four adults.

Easily handled by one or two competent sailors they are a well designed yacht with a good turn of speed for their size and pleasant light and airy accomodation.

This example has clearly been well looked after, the sails were renewed in 2010, the standing rigging was renewed in 2011 and she comes complete with a 2012 road trailer.
