Boat OverviewSnufkin epitomises the family sailing yacht for the UK East Coast. She is fitted with many great options and is presented in good order with one family owning her from new in 2010 when she was purchased from here at Fox’s Yacht Sales. She has the benefit of a shoal keel and a sugar scoop stern enabling her to offer the best of both worlds for river and coastal sailing whilst still offering the option for trips to Holland, Belgium, and France.
Upgrades and MaintenanceHer 2017 standing rigging, coppercoat hull, and Brunton’s feathering propeller add to the upgrades helping to keep maintenance costs down and making her slippery through the water.
Interior FeaturesInside she is immaculate and clearly loved with good quality, clean surfaces and upholstery in light colours to give the greatest feeling of light and space.
Standing headroom in the saloon for my 6’1″ height
Easy galley with dual sinks
Large fridge
Huge berth in the separate aft cabin for comfortable sleeping for taller people
Separate cabin forward offering a ‚V‘ berth with infill and straight berths to the saloon
She is good for sleeping six crew.
Sailing PerformanceFurling headsail and slab reefing to the main work well and her simple rig and newer standing rigging set the sails well.
We sailed her the 25 miles or so from her home port to Fox’s and were pleased to see she has the performance expected of a hull which can draw its roots back to the Figaro race yachts. She sailed extremely well, cutting comfortably through the waves and providing decent speed with her white sails which set particularly well. Under engine she accelerated and stopped well with the Brunton’s prop biting confidently.
Viewing InformationShe is available to view on our hardstanding at Fox’s Marina.
