Broker Remarks
Vancouver 28 for sale. Built by Northshore Yachts in Chichester. The Vancouver 28 was built as a cruising boat. Yachting Monthly described the design as ‘having perfect manners and easy long-legged handling’, and ....’ she will keep going comfortably when lighter yachts are looking for shelter.’ This is the three berth version so there are no forecabin berths, but there is a quarter berth aft in the saloon. MISTS OF AVALON has been under the same ownership since new and has obviously been immaculately maintained and updated during that ownership. Always wintered ashore under full cover. Really tidy and much loved example of these highly regarded go anywhere cruising yachts. Mists of Avalon is in outstanding condition for this era of sailing yacht.
