Sadler 29

The Sadler 29 is well known for being a sturdy and safe family cruiser. Seraph has been with her current owner for the last 17 years and is truly a testament to their meticulous maintenance and care. She benefits from recent sails, standing and running rigging. If you are looking for a dependable cruising yacht ready to sail away, look no further. This is the fin keel version built in 1988 and well worth a look.
