Broker's Comments
'Something Special In Wood'- reads true the original sales brochure.
The Finesse 24 is one of those rare beauties, traditionally crafted of Iroko hardwood and indented to last a lifetime. The superb construction and quality of finish aid to the strength and capability of the boat.
Hand built to specific personal preference, this version features spacious cockpit with ample stowage, a well designed interior layout, incorporating galley to port, twin port/starboard saloon seating focused around central saloon table. Seating doubles as berth space with a third single fore peak berth to port, central heads and additional stowage/locker space.
The interior finish is eye catching, with glossy varnished Iroko, clean upholstery and quality fixings and fixtures.
It is believed the boat has only had three owners from new. Credit lies with the current owners for their dedication to excellent overall maintenance and the beautiful way this boat presentes for sale.
