Description

This tough little long keeled 26 footer is very stable, easy to keep on course and very reassuring when conditions get challenging. Similar boats have trans atlantic pedigree( 1972 OSTAR ) and in 1985 18 year old Tania Aebi circum navigated the globe !
"Countess Isabella" has been based in Fowey since 1990 and we have her full history since then. We purchased her in 2021 as we were re-fitting our wooden folkboat which she closely resembles.
She was originally powered by a Vire petrol engine , but this was replaced by a Yanmar 1GM10 diesel in 2005.
The cockpit is self draining, auto helm if required and with a Garmin map551 chartplotter. Down below the nav table has a Garmin 120XL sat nav, VHF, sounder etc. The galley has the original butane stove and there is a manual Jabsco heads.
There is a boom furling mainsail and a new Plastimo furling genoa. We fitted beaching legs as she winters on a drying mooring along the Penryn River near Falmouth . There is a spray hood if required.
