"Nire Lowa II", designed by Bruce Farr and built by Cavalier Yachts has been cruised and raced out of Hobrt since new. The Farr 37s are capable offshore yachts with Sydney to Hobart and many other offshore races to their credit. They still club race competitively. Racing aside, these comfortable sea-kindly vessels are perfect coastal cruisers, safe, fast and easily managed. "Nire Lowa II" is set up to be sailed short-handed.... *furling headsail, *lazy jacks to manage the mainsail, *sheets and halyards lead to the cockpit, *an electric anchor winch and a strong, reliable Volvo diesel. Below deck, it is all about comfort with a spacious saloon, a full-service galley, a private bathroom (with hot/cold shower) and a private, roomy V-cabin. This vessel is well-equipped and presents in excellent condition. The current owner has maintained "Nire Lowa II" to a high standard. The bottom was recently sandblasted and re-epoxied and the standing rigging was renewed in 2022.
"Nire Lowa II" is reluctantly offered for sale due to ill health such that the owner can no longer manage the vessel.

Accommodation
The saloon (with full headroom) is light and well-ventilated thanks to the large deck hatch and side strip windows. Cavalier quality is evident in the general finish and in particular the fine timber fitout. Well-upholstered settees (which can be used as occasional berths) run down each side of the large table (with an extender). Aft the quarter berths are large with plenty of space because of the midship engine. The substantial and well-equipped nav station is to starboard with the galley opposite. Forward of the main bulkhead are built-in storage lockers and the private bathroom with an electric toilet and shower. The private V-cabin is set up with two single berths but would easily convert to a double.
