Broker's Comments
Every so often I encounter a boat that I like so much I would seriously like to own it myself and, were it not that I already have a boat, the deal might have been done and this listing wouldn't have seen the light of day. However, no-one in my position needs two boats, so here it is. This is the nicest LM26 I've seen. Looks-wise, she's sharper and more modern-looking than her 27 sister, but shares her virtues - quality construction, fit-out and equipment, allied with enviable sea-keeping qualities and versatile, generous accommodation. Since acquiring her in October 2011, the vendor has upgraded and renovated her extensively (itemised elsewhere), but he no longer has time to sail, and has reluctantly decided to sell her. to a good home.
These boat details are subject to contract.
