Probably the best example of this 1990 popular twin bilge keel 9m sloop. It is a spacious cruiser, with just two owners from new and moored in the same Marina. Cloud Nine is professionally maintained. One of the last built, sail number 685 over a 12 year period. Safe wide side decks, easily sailed single handed and powered by a little used Volvo Penta Diesel 2002. Good Engine access and capable of 6.7 knots at good economical diesel Fuel consumption. (33 litres last season 2023) Full sail can be carried up to the top end of Force 4 and is responsive to the helm being easily maneoeuvred in Marinas.
Cloud Nine is very well presented and is equipped to a very high standard. Full Service and maintenance records together with proof of ownership and VAT paid.
Regularly winterized under cover following crane out.
Cloud Nine is valued by Knox Johnson Insurers for a replacement value of £40,000 (see end for asking price)
