Broker's Comments
Beneteau introduced the First 27 in the 70's. The boat soon gained popularity as a fast cruiser/racer, equally adept at harbour hopping, coastal cruising and competitive regatta performances.
Delta of Venus benefits from a replacement Volvo Penta (2011) with low hours, only 218.5 recorded. She demonstrates minimal age related wear but otherwise appears a sound example, ready to use this summer.
Mast, standing rigging, main and head sails were all replaced with new in 2010.
The boat is currently afloat, easily accessible and ready for viewing. A popular style, ready for use this summer.
The red bucket in the galley is used as a waste bin.
