Description
A rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully maintained 2010 Trusty T23, one of the finest examples currently on the market. Following the much-loved lines of the iconic T21 but with significantly greater accommodation and improved performance, the T23 is equally at home on coastal passages or the inland waterways thanks to her reliable Yanmar 54hp with only 300 hours.
This two-owner boat has been cared for to an exceptional standard throughout her life and upgraded yearly. Engine servicing, new anodes, hull polish, amongst others, have been carried out annually without exception, the kind of diligent upkeep that's increasingly rare and immediately apparent when you come aboard.
The current owner is motivated to sell and happy to consider serious offers. Viewings are welcomed and the boat is available to move quickly for the right buyer.
Suitable for coastal and offshore waters as well as inland waterways, a genuinely versatile cruiser that opens up the full range of UK and European waterways.
Her condition is excellent throughout. This is a boat that has clearly been loved, not just used. She is ready to sail away and enjoy from day one.
Don't let this one slip, well-presented Trusty T23s with this level of specification and maintenance history don't come up often.
Viewings strictly by appointment. Serious enquiries only please.
