Levi Tantarella 35 Just Listed

Sold to the current and previous owners by this broker

An exceptional example of the Triana Tantarella 35 thoroughbred historic performance powerboat designed by Sonny Levi - carefully maintained and updated to be extremely usable.

This Triana Tantarella 35 built-in 1974 by Triana Boats of Wimborne is a beautiful sports cruiser, one of only three wheelhouse versions built, of classic design and stunning handling.

Designed by legendary Renato (Sonny) Levi, the Triana Tantarella has the distinctive reverse sheer and a genuine deep V hull trademark of his designs.

Levi of course was responsible for arguably some of the best fast sea-going boats ever - the Tantarella not only one of the most beautiful sports cruisers but also boasting awesome sea keeping qualities. This superb Triana Tantarella 35 has been constantly updated and is a worthy example of this near-legendary marque.

This Triana Tantarella 35 has been carefully maintained and updated by her current owner since I sold her to him. Work includes prop shafts, stern glands and intercoolers which have all replaced or fully refurbished. All bilge pumps replaced and new gas fittings installed (certificate issued). Work completed includes refurbishing of canvas surrounds with new windows and zips, replacement engine fans, holding tank sensor and hoses, new fresh water domestic pump, house and bow thruster batteries alongside usual maintenance. New impellers 24-3-25. Only two hours running since major service in 2024.
