Description

Rhodes Ranger 29 design, built in Scotland as the Seafarer 28. Penned by the naval architect Philip Rhodes, this is 1962 GRP classic with nice lines and sea-kindly performance.

She benefits significantly from a comprehensive refit by the previous owner (a marine industry professional), which included a new engine installation and interior updates. She is a sturdy, long-keel classic that prioritises sailing ability over internal volume.

Selling due to conflicting family commitments leaving insufficient time for sailing. This is a reluctant sale; do not want to see a boat deteriorate through lack of use. She needs a new custodian to get her out on the water where she belongs.

Viewing: Lying ashore at Wicormarine Yacht Haven, accessible for inspection.

Mechanical: The professional refit ensures she is mechanically sound.
Cosmetic: Fair. She is ready to launch and enjoy immediately, some exterior woodwork/brightwork will benefit from attention and varnishing next season to bring her back to her full aesthetic glory.
