42' GRP Marine Moulding LTD Bruce Roberts 42 ft

VISIT NOW! 17.9.- 30.9.2025. Marina Aktio, Preveza, Greece
The ship was built in an Irish shipyard in Dublin for the shipyard owner's circumnavigation and sailed successfully for over 10 years in most of the world's oceans, sometimes single-handed. It has been in second ownership since 2020 and in ongoing refit since 2021. It is absolutely seaworthy and extremely robust in its entire construction and elegant interior. The hull is made of solid GRP, no sandwich construction, no osmosis. The cutter rig with 2 forestays is of above-average dimensions and easy to trim. The rudder is protected by a skeg, the keel is joined to the hull in a single casting.
