Broker's Comments

This Seal 28 cruising yacht offers a lot of space, with seven berths for all the family, the highlight being the separate aft cabin that can sleep two, or be used as a great storage space.

My first impressions of this boat is that she is equipped her very well, but needs work to bring her into the here and now.

The exterior needs a bit of a clean, while the interior, whilst large for her size, needs some touches to make her homely again - she has real potential, but is somewhat of a project.

Seal 28s are known for being family cruising boats that fit in a lot of accommodation and we think this one is well worth a look for the price.

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