Broker's Comments

This Cobra 850 appears to be in excellent condition.

Renowned for its build quality and sea-keeping capabilities she is an ideal starter yacht for a family or crew starting out or for a seasoned sailor wanting to buy a great value yacht.

She benefits from many upgrades which also include work on the standing rigging and a new main sail in 2018. She also benefits from diesel-fired heating.

She has a couple of areas where her headlining needs attention, but other than that, I was very impressed with her overall condition both inside and out.

Please don't hesitate to contact me about this boat if you want to know more, or book a viewing.
