1974 Colvin Gazelle Aluminum Hull, this gorgeous Chinese Lug rigged ketch designed by Tom Colvin is available to the market for the first time in 40 years.
Purchased in 1984 by the current owner, this remarkable sailboat has been loving and meticulously maintained throughout the years and it shows in every aspect. Built in the Greenwich Yacht Company yard in Richmond BC, Canada her design, highest quality build materials, and attention to detail in construction has proven its over and over. The current owners have sailed through out the Carribean every season and when not in the crystal-clear waters of the Atlantic, she has been stored on the hardstand and put away with great care. I challenge you to find a better example of boat from this era that is of the same quality and condition.
Yanmar repowered with a 3JH4E 39hp engine in 2008 that has only 2081 hours.
This boat has everything you need and nothing you do not. Simplicity at its best.
This boat draws a crowd wherever she goes. Make this your boat and you will proudly sail from anchorage to anchorage comfortably and safely.
