Description
The Poncin 44 is an elegant yacht with a sleek low-profile deck line and high aspect ratio rig suggesting that she is designed more as a cruiser racer, but her ease of handling and conservative interior suggest she is very much a cruiser. She truly is an elegant easy to handle sloop and certainly well worth a look. She is located on the Isle of Wight.
