Compass 29's are one of Australia's most popular production yachts featuring comfortable accommodation for up to six adults and are renowned for their sea keeping qualities and build integrity.

The Compass 29 is a 28.83ft masthead sloop designed by Gunter Heuchmer & Don Lees and built in fiberglass by Compass Yachts Ltd. (Australia/NZ) between 1974 and 1981,375 units have been built. The Compass 29 is very stable with good righting capability if capsized, making it a great coastal cruiser.

'Shandy' is a well maintained yacht with an original layout, good sails and nice covered protection from the cockpit under the large bimini.
The timberwork and upholstery are in very good condition.
Bukh 10Hp diesel shaft driven engine is well maintained and serviced.
This boat is a good example of these timeless classics and is a must to inspect with a fully battened main, furling genoa in good condition and a storm jib completes the sail wardrobe.
Ideal entry level yacht and well suited for shorthanded sailing.
Absolutely ready to up anchor and go sailing with nothing to spend. Last surveyed in October 2022. Recently antifouled in April 2025 with the engine serviced in September 2023.
Last survey: October 2022 Last antifoul: April 2025.

The Compass 29 is one of Australia's most liked production yachts; known for their strong builds for lake or coastal sailing. Enough room to comfortably accommodate friends and family. This is a great sailing vessel for both experienced sailors or beginners.

Come aboard and take a look at Shandy, you will not be disappointed. I am very flexible to make a time for you to inspect her, so don't delay. At this price I don't expect it will take long to pass her to the next proud owner.
Located: Eleebana, Lake Macquarie, NSW.
