Description
.
Offered by her current owner, Paiqea is a true modern classic, beautifully equipped and recently upgraded.
Her comprehensive equipment list includes a hydraulically operated mainsail, genoa and cutter, electric winches, heating and air conditioning, radar, chartplotter, davits, outboard lift and much more. Recent upgrades add even greater value, with new sails, a new fridge and freezer, new air conditioning, new batteries and replaced thru-hulls.
Life on board is a true pleasure, with all the comfort items you could wish for. The fully hydraulic sail handling system allows her to be sailed with ease by just a couple, while her inviting interior ? featuring a comfortable C-shaped settee on starboard ? offers both elegance and practicality.
