1986 Lord Nelson 35

Wright International Ltd has always found that sea worthy yachts with comfortable and luxurious cabins always sell far quicker and easier than any other kind. When you look at the specification and photographs of this 1986 Lord Nelson 35, you will instantly want to sail the 7 seas and hope your voyage never ends. The solid GRP construction and long fin (or full) keel helps give great stability in rough weather. The accommodation however is not like your typical blue water cruiser. Most blue water cruisers have you sleeping on solid beds, bare hulls and poor facilities in order to save weight etc. This yacht would be a perfect liveaboard even if you chose to never leave your mooring. This is a fantastic opportunity to purchase one of the most idealistic yachts on our brokerage list for only £80,000.
