Remarks
A proven and much-loved bluewater cruiser, *Tehani-li* has been carefully maintained and equipped for comfortable offshore sailing. She also served as our home for nearly two years, demonstrating her practicality and comfort as a liveaboard.
Following our relocation to Western Australia, she is now reluctantly offered for sale. With her strong cruising pedigree, extensive inventory and recent upgrades, she is ready for coastal cruising, extended passages or life aboard.
Recently reduced, *Tehani-li* represents excellent value for buyers seeking a capable, well-equipped and genuinely ocean-proven yacht.
