Owners Comments
"Figaro" has been in the same ownership for 18 years, and appears to have been well maintained. There are a few areas of star grazing but these appear to be cosmetic and not structural. The boat also has spray hood and dodgers which are only a few years old. Below decks she is clean, tidy and dry.
Figaro is currently ashore on a yard trailer in secure boat yard in Harwich, Essex, viewing is by appointment only.
