OWNERS COMMENTS:
Avocette is a safe, comfortable, and fast passage maker with a fine pedigree. Set up for short-handed sailing. She is a heavy displacement, ocean cruiser. This boat was designed to be sailed long distances. With her excellent galley, deep cockpit, high guardrails and clear side decks, not to mention 78 lockers/storage spaces, she has carried us safely around the North Sea, to and fro across the North Atlantic, around Europe and the Mediterranean, and all without any major drama.
Avocette is both RCD and US compliant, and VAT paid. Avocette benefits from being fitted with both 110v and 220v mains input. Her pretty lines turn heads everywhere she goes.
