DeVRIES 35ft STEEL CRUISING KETCH


You can live on this boat or use it as a sail boat or motor cruiser depending on the weather as the current owner has done. Lara Craig has travelled the gulfs and interstate as well. She motor cruises economically using around 1-½ litres per hour. There is an excellent range of sails in good condition, including main sail, head sail, mizzen and asymmetrical spinnaker.
Lara has a full range of instruments including a Raymarine chart plotter, wind direction and speed etc.
The vessel is also protected by an electronic electrolysis detection system.
Inside there is a shower with hot and cold water, a toilet with holding tank.
The galley has a 4 burner lpg stove, sink, fridge and freezer. Comfortable U shape seating around the table which can drop down to a be used as a bed.
The forward cabin has good size bed and a bunk bed with a roof opening ventilation hatch.
Forward of that is a storage area and a waterproof locker behind the round porthole door showing in the photos.

Lara has has one owner for the last 30 years and has been meticulously upkept.
I am now in my mid-70s and have decided to retire from sailing and pass my pride and joy on to someone who can appreciate a pretty boat.
