Broker's Comments

This long-keeled classic family cruiser/racer is renowned for being built to Lloyds exacting standards. The Morgan Giles 30 is renowned for safe and swift seakeeping qualities and is pretty to look at too.

This boat appears to be in good condition for her age and has unbelievably only had two owners from new!

She benefits from having her hull professionally copper coated and the installation of a wind generator to keep her batteries topped up and she comes with a good sail wardrobe.

Her sails appear to be in very good condition and have always been taken away from the boat and stored at the owner's home.

The only reason the current owner is selling their beloved boat is that they simply don't have the time to use the boat as often as they would like to.

Please note that the yacht cradle that this boat is currently sat on is included in the sale.

Please don't hesitate to contact me for an early viewing of this very popular model of boat!
