Broker's Comments

Sparkman and Stephens sailing boats are legendary and without doubt, always my personal favourites. Designed to perform well, particularly upwind with strong sea-keeping abilities and their elegant good looks mean they always turn heads.

The Sagitta 35 is also an example of how ahead of their time Sparkman and Stephens really were. Clean modern lines complimented with strong, solid build standards should make her a sailor's choice, plenty of space if fully crewed yet safe and easy to handle short handed; crossing oceans or cruising the coast.

She appears very well maintained and presents extremely nicely, having the benefit of a highly experienced owner who really cares. The interior is lovely, traditional in layout but clean, bright and fresh with smart upholstery and lots of usable storage.

She's recently back afloat after a yard period and although her sails are off and stored clean and dry she is very much in commission for the season. This is a boat that loves sailing!
