Broker's Comments
What a delightful little yacht!
Ideal for coastal and cross channel passages, she might suit a family new to yachting or an owner wishing to down size from a bigger vessel. The Foxhound is a successful quarter tonner from the late '70s, from the design board of the renowned Uffa Fox.
Excellent performance as a cruiser/racer, with well planned accommodation and good headroom for her size. She benefits from recent sails and standing rigging and has had a thorough overhaul of her electrical systems. Well equipped, very well presented and on a galvanised road trailer. I think she is an excellent package at the asking price however a close offer might be accepted as the owner has another yacht and is now very keen to move her on.
