Description

Albatross of Iona is a lovely example of this classic yacht, British registered, situated in Foleux Marina on the River Villaine in South Brittany. The boat has been well maintained having been antifouled and new anodes prior to relaunch in May 2025 having been stored ashore over the winter. It is a very comfortable floating holiday home that we have enjoyed whilst cruising South Brittany for the last five years. We have reluctantly decided to sell as we have another boat in the UK and we do not have enough time to use Albatross as much as we would like.
We have priced the boat realistically to sell. It is a lot of boat for the money.
