Oceanlord

An ex-London Boat Show model with a DoT stability category 1 Hull, she has teak decks, carries a powerful conventional rig and large self tailing winches. She has good windward performance, exemplary seagoing qualities and the 10 berths are arranged so that 7 can sleep in comfort without using the saloon.

Equipment includes roller furling, new mainsail and 140% genoa, GPS, Raymarine wind/depth/log, stereo, brand new 3 burner ‘Dometic’ cooker, refrigerated cool box, pressurised hot & cold water system, inflatable tender, electric/manual anchor windlass and a propeller stripper. She has recently had a StakPak system fitted to make raising and lowering the mainsail a breeze.

She was recently fitted with new decks and a new powerful Volvo diesel engine and gearbox.

Recently she has been completely re-upholstered and all the lighting was replaced with something brighter, more modern and energy efficient. For the 2019 season she was fitted with a new, powerful windlass, the galley was completely updated. The propeller was also being replaced to give lower engine revs at cruising speed for better economy and a quieter environment on board.

Over the winter of 2018/18 her entire interior was removed and replaced – every inch of headlining – all the hatches, portlights and windows will be removed and all the headlining replaced before everything is re-installed. We will also take the opportunity to strip and re-varnish all the woodwork resulting in an entire interior refurbishment.

For 2024 she had a brand new cooker.

‘A tough boat and a joy to sail – they don’t make them like this any more’ – sadly!
