Broker's Comments

I am very pleased to be able to offer a very tidy, capable and rare Spirit 28 Sports Cruiser presented in very nice condition. This spacious and attractive boat offers a huge amount of space and practicality in a stylish 28 foot length. These are rare boats with just a scant handful ever built and are a very similar layout to the ever poular Falcon 27 just with more space and rarity. This particular boat has been lovingly cared for by her highly experienced and particular owner of the last 8 years and has cruised extensively along the coast of Eastern England. She has been rigorously maintained and has her BSS and Broads license. The very spacoius accomodation, both inside and out, is quite remarkable and would not be out of place on a larger boat. Her large alfresco cockpit has sumptuous seating for at least 8 people. The interior space is just as impressive with nice wrap-around saloon seating which converts to comfy double berth. A good sized seperate aft double cabin is a nice feature too. She also boasts a well appointed heads and shower compartment which complete this lovely boat.
With her warm air heating she is equipped for all year cruising and is presented in ready to go condition. The looks and rare nature of this boat turn heads wherever she goes and the accomodation will be sure to please every time you step aboard and enjoy her bright interior space. She could do with a new front canopy section in the not too distant future and is priced to sell with this in mind, however it is perfectly serviceable.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
