Brokers Comments
Seraph is a beautiful boat, definitely worth viewing if you are looking for a really sensible cruising yacht or blue water ocean going yacht that will keep you safe and sound wherever in the world you want to go. The long keel and nicely balanced rig combines to provide superior sea-keeping and great sailing qualities. She just plugs along steadily wherever she's pointed, no matter what the weather. Just the job for living that dream, staying healthy and safely getting away from all the hassle of life and global restrictions.
Built for Americans, so lots of space below decks and spacious, separate shower stalls and heads.
