Evolution 26 "Aurora". Easy to handle 6 berth fast cruiser/racer, ready to sail now.
£9.950
Description
Just launched & available right now in Troon Yacht Haven, berth F24. Sale forced due to health reasons, hence the attractive price - and note that this boat was fully fitted out by the manufacturers and not "home finished" from purchased GRP mouldings as many of this type were. Serious enquirers are welcome to a test sail and reasonable sailing guidance/instruction if required; easy to sail and yet capable of exhilarating performance, "Aurora" would be an ideal first boat and equally would appeal to a competitive racer..
