Broker's Comments

The Virgo Voyager is a solidly built small cruiser with very spacious accommodation for a boat of this length; the Saloon area has 6ft headroom. They are also regarded as good sailing boats suitable for coastal cruising. They have a separate heads with hand basin and this is one of the few built with the L-shaped galley forward of the heads compartment.
The navigation instrumentation on this boat is very good it comes with a modern chart plotter, a GPS and much more.
The Yanmar inboard diesel engine was fitted in 1993 and looks in nice order too.
In summary this is a very nicely presented tidy boat that looks pretty much ready to use.
Appointments to view can be arranged in advance 6-days a week by contacting the Boatshed Essex office direct.
