Description

Blue Topaz is a highly spec'd and well-loved Channel Island 32, constructed by Island Marine Craft in Guernsey (being the most desirable and refined builds) and launched in September 2001.

She is fitted with the preferred twin Perkins Sabre M225Ti engines and recent electronics, making her ideal for Channel cruising and beyond. She cruises comfortably at 18 knots with a top speed of 23–24.

The 2023 survey reported no issues, with all recommendations professionally addressed. She is currently berthed in Guernsey and has UK VAT-paid status and a full history from all four owners. She's ready to go for the 2025 season.
