Broker's Comments

Vindo yachts are built in Sweden and have a reputation for producing high quality, solid GRP boats.

Whilst the boat has not been used for a while, the current owner has kept on top of her maintenance schedule which includes most recently sanding the teak decks and cleaning the outside of the vessel.

Inside she is in good order and benefits from some really nice mahogany woodwork.

Notes:

- The standing rigging was replaced in 2021
- The engine was serviced in 2023 and a new alternator fitted
- The boat had 2 coats of epoxy and was anti fouled during September 2023
- A new prop was fitted during 2023
