Overview
About this vessel
The 1965 Sencer Sirius is a 14.32m A Class Keeler. Built by Max Carter in wood epoxy, she was reportedly built for Alan Vause, a past commodore of the Yacht Squadron, and has been part of Penny Whiting's sailing school. Avian is a competitive yacht with a long racing history, being fast and exciting to sail.
The present owners of twenty-odd years have been caring for her, with new antifoul applied and ready to go sailing. Being of this vintage, she would be a great yacht for the Classic Yacht Association. The vessel has 6ft headroom with accommodation for five, providing comfort and all the basic needs.
She has a 23hp Kubota giving a cruise speed of six knots. This is a great opportunity to get into the classic/retro yacht market for a very reasonable investment. Retiring owners have instructed to sell with a sharp price. Mooring in the very sheltered Catalina Bay, Hobsonville, can be available.
