Broker's Comments

Here we have an honest Laser 28 that is extremely well equipped for racing, with lots of amazing racing, nav and sailing gear.

She's had some expensive work done this year, to ensure and would suit a racing sailor, or group of racing friends or, equally, she may suit a couple or small family who'd like to go sailing in a very well equipped boat.

Her engine, though refurbished this year, needs a job doing, assessed by the attending engineer as "alternator has overcharged causing the loom to overheat and melt the insulation, this has in turn grounded the charging cable to earth and put a large load on the engine causing the engine power loss you experienced."

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
