Broker's Comments

Please note that the boat has now gone back into the water for the summer season!

This is a stunning example of the Elan 431 with beautiful lines and bags of interior space, she is ideal for offshore cruising or simply a family weekender.

This particular boat has pretty well everything you could want on a boat. The present owners have made huge upgrades and in 2023 she was professionally re-sprayed, had new Tek Dec fitted as the original teak was in poor shape. The owners also had the hull stripped back and had her treated with osmoshell (there was nothing wrong with the hull, it was purely precautionary).

She has a great sail wardrobe, great navigation equipment and lots and lots of extras including a new Jacobs Cradle that will go with the boat. She also had 2 x 460A/hour Lithium batteries with phone app control in 2023 along with a 440W solar panel that attaches to the Bimini frame.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
