Broker's Comments

This boat has been an exceptional race winner!

She looks like a fine example of a long keeled racing Contessa.

She won the 2016 JOG NAB Tower Class 6 and is the 2016 class 6 cat 4 series winner!

Thanks to the current owner she's amazingly equipped for racing with all new equipment, has had her mast compression beam replaced in 2017 and has been IRC Certificate endorsed.

Our first impressions are that there has been a lot of time/money spent on the exterior of this boat and her brilliant racing equipment, though she'd benefit from an interior blast.

This boat is set up to be a racer but could also be a good single helmed cruiser.

Look at this pedigree!:

Mast compression beam replaced 2017
IRC Rating 0.765

2016 class 6 cat 4 series winner
3rd JOG Cowes Weymouth 2017

Currently having chain plate securing wood/GRP replaced.

New rudder and chain plates included in sale.
