Category: Sailing Boats
Class:
Description Year: 1983 Type: Cruiser/Racer Beam (feet): 26 Make: Kelsall Hull Material: Fiberglass Model: GP Rigging: Sloop/Cutter Keel: Lift Length (feet): 30 Engine Make: tohatsu
This is a rare opportunity to own a one-off Kelsall GP trimaran, very fast and safe with a shallow draught, great for trips to the beach. The 9m Tri has a big rig and loads of power. I have an updated roller reefing to be installed (included in the sale), full set of sails inc storm jib, spinnaker, code 0, 2 jibs (one jib fits the self-tacking system) and 2 main sails, all of which have had annual trips to the sail makers to maintain them. The tri also comes with a Tohatsu 8hp and a Johnson aux outboard and a loadstar dinghy, the engines and the dinghy are worth £1500 on their own.A bit of work and this boat will be ready to go for the season, ideal for cruising from beach to beach or club racing. The boat is currently out of the water in Fishguard Lowertown harbor and is due to be lifted back in around mid/late April, which will give you a few months to get the jobs done, if you can't do the work yourself I can put you in touch with the person who has done the recent work on the hull. The interior is small, it has a usable chart table and galley, a heavy weather dome which is great for keep an eye on things when below without sticking your head out of the cabin. It has two racing bunks which offer some comfort but feel very secure. The cockpit is deep and safe, with all lines running back to the helmsman. Running rigging could do with updating. The last survey I had done on the boat valued her at £17,000 and this survey is available upon request. I'm selling the boat as I have no time to sail it and want someone else to make use of it. I'll be selling it at around 25% of her value, this is taking into consideration the jobs that need finishing and my willingness to sell it to a good home. This is a CASH ONLY sale. Sold as seen, please don't bid and then inspect the boat, if you buy it as a blind purchasePlease do not hesitate to contact me for further information.
