Update: Blue Nun has been sold! Fair winds to the new owners!
Unfortunately the time has come to part with Blue Nun, as we’ve purchased a 1982 C&C 40-2.
1978 CS 27 for sale. CS Yachts are renowned for their build-quality and sea-worthiness, and the CS 27 is a great starter boat. Berths for up to 5 people in a spacious cabin. A reliable Yanmar YSE8 diesel engine, and a full-batten main, and furling 135% Genoa (new in 2016). This boat has a refreshed interior, has been well-maintained, and is ready to sail away.
