Breekveldt 43 Pilothouse "Avior" Just Listed

"Avior" is a well-maintained rugged, blue-water pilot-house cruising yacht. Designed by the highly regarded naval architect, Gerry Breekveldt (New Zealand) this well-found steel vessel is set up for short-handed cruising with furling headsails, provision to carry staysail and lazy jacks to manage the main. The crew are perfectly sheltered in the centre pilot house. The helm station to starboard is comprehensively equipped (including radar). Large sliding side windows allow the skipper to communicate with the crew and provide plenty of ventilation. With a comfortably cushioned pushpit settee, a BBQ and a foldout table in the pilothouse the crew enjoy this space underway or at anchor. A companionway aft of the pilothouse takes you to a spacious private cabin with generous twin single berths. Step down the forward companionway to the very comfortable saloon. The full-service galley is immediately to port with the bathroom opposite.
There are well-upholstered settees (seating for 8) to port and starboard with a drop leaf table amidships. The V-double berth forward of the bulkhead is comfortable and private. The ever-reliable 85 hp, fresh-water cool Perkins diesel has what it takes to drive the big vessel through the chop at around 6 knots. A dinghy hangs off heavy-duty davits. The current owners are retired marine professionals. Having worked boats in the Southern waters for many years they knew what to look for in a recreational yacht. "Avior" was their choice.

"Avior" is a vessel designed and built to explore the coast or cross oceans safely and comfortably. This is where your adventure begins.
