1989 Victoria 30

Ipswich, Suffolk, United Kingdom

£25,000

The Chuck Paine designed Victoria 30 offers everything you would need to spend time away, with good accommodation and great cockpit space.

She is tiller steered and long keeled, so she will sail straight and true and make good ground on long passages made even easier by the use of the tiller pilot.

This well loved example has many upgrades including new canvas work, a new chart plotter and a recent Yanmar engine
