Remarks:
Combining the grace and beauty of a traditional Broads yacht with the practicality of a GRP hull and (a newly overhauled) diesel engine, the Easticks 28 is a deservedly popular cruiser/racer.
Purchased by the current owner in 2015, this particular Easticks was restored in 2016 and has been well maintained since. With four berths, a large cockpit and a well provisioned galley as well as a separate heads with hand held shower (cold supply only), she is extremely spacious and therefore ideal for family use.
She is also well equipped for racing having both aerofoil keel and rudder, folding propeller, Lewmar self tailing winches and navigation lights. She comes with 2 suits of sails (1 set only used a handful of times) and has a River Cruiser Class handicap of -19%.
Now sadly for sale due to a lack of use for health reasons.
