Broker's Comments

Fantastic condition inside and out this Biscay 36 is definately a must see! Built by Emsworth Yacht Harbour and designed by Alan Hill this particular model being sloop rather than the ketch option, a sloop being able to point a little better. A Biscay 36 is within a selection of yachts approved to participate in the Gloden Globe Race 2018 last count 3 entered the GGR 2018. Sir Robin quoted ' what is required is a comfortable boat that rides well with easy directional stability. Antoine Cousot said 'for the GGR she is the best compromise: light, fast and sturdy'. The Biscay is regularly compared to the Tradewind 35, Bowman 36, Vancouver 34 and the Rustler 36.
Current owner bought boat in 2008 in Falmouth where he had sailed around Falmouth and the Scillies. Current owner brought her back to Portsmouth and has sailed her mainly in the Solent and as far as Weymouth to Brighton either side. In current ownership the owner has replaced the aqua drive coupling. New prop shaft and prop balance winter 2017/18.
