Broker's Comments
The Prospect 900 from Rydgeway Marine, designed by well regarded Dutch Marine architect E. G Van De Stadt.
Built predominantly from fiberglass, the deep cockpit gives a reassuring sense of safety, while the relatively shallow bilge keels offers a variety of berthing options and access to shallow inland waterways.
The boat has received significant recent investment- in excess of £4,000, undertaken between 2021-2022. Improvements include complete professional engine refurbishment, new stainless steel standing rigging, new batteries, new alternator and new canvas work.
A great opportunity to acquire a sailing boat with meaningful investment/improvements, ready to be enjoyed by new owners.
