The 37.5-metre gaff-rigged sailing yacht Alexa of London has been listed for sale with Alastair Shove of Carrswood Yachts.
Meticulously Maintained
Built in steel in Poland at Gdansk Yb in 1992, the gaff cutter has been meticulously maintained by her long-standing crew and cherished by her present owners who have cruised extensively.
Her current owner had an interior designer create a “New England, clean-cut, simple style throughout”, the broker said, which includes white and navy furnishings with white paneled walls. She sleeps nine guests in four cabins, each equipped with opening hull ports, with quarters for a crew of five.
Plentiful Space
Alexa of London has plenty of deck space for sunpads and traditional teak deck chairs that can be used even while cruising under sail. A 10-seater dining table can be set up on the foredeck under a large awning, while a secondary table is positioned in the cockpit aft, ideal for enjoying breakfast al fresco.
A side boarding staircase/platform can be lowered for swimming and water activities or for guests boarding from her Williams tender. The 116GT sailing yacht for sale has a top speed of 11 knots under power and similar under her powerful gaff rig (consisting of a main sail, flying jib, inner jib and staysail, courtesy of North Sails and serviced annually.) Meanwhile, her keel lifts so draught can be reduced from seven meters under sail to 3.5 meters when anchoring in shallow waters or entering a port.
