Overview

Sandy is a truly individual 8m aluminium cutter cruiser, built in Brittany in 1998 to a John Sadler design. Constructed with an unsinkable foam-filled hull and twin swing keels, she offers an unusual combination of shallow-water capability, sailing performance and practical cruising. She has been exceptionally well maintained and has benefited from an impressive programme of upgrades, including renewed standing and running rigging, a new mainsail, hull repaint, upgraded electrics and navigation equipment, new batteries and wiring, gearbox service, new prop shaft and numerous engine works. With comfortable accommodation for three, a well-appointed interior, beaching legs and an extensive sail inventory including a cruising asymmetric spinnaker and storm trysail, Sandy is a fascinating and capable little cruiser, ready for her next adventure.

A buyer should instruct his agents, or surveyors, to investigate such details as the buyer desires validated. This vessel is offered for sale subject to no prior sale, price change, or withdrawal without notice.

VAT, CE and RCD: prices are as advertised for the seller. Unless the listing clearly says so, don’t assume a boat is VAT paid or that its price includes VAT. Boats first placed on the UK or EU market since 16 June 1998 generally have to comply with the Recreational Craft Directive (in Great Britain, the Recreational Craft Regulations 2017) and carry a CE or UKCA mark with a Declaration of Conformity. Before you buy, ask for and check evidence of the boat’s VAT status and RCD compliance, and take advice if it is to be imported or exported.

Buying through a broker: when EUROYACHTS (LARGS) LIMITED sells a used boat as broker for its owner, the contract of sale is between you and the owner, and buying from a private owner gives you fewer statutory rights than buying from a business. Any agreement is subject to contract. We recommend an independent survey and a sea trial before you commit.
