Cole 23 IDEAL FIRST YACHT FOR CRUISING OR RACING!

Peter Cole is renowned for his cruiser/racer designs, celebrated for their perfect balance of impressive sailing performance, well laid out accommodation, and easy handling. The Cole 23 is one of his most popular and enduring designs, still highly sought after today. Ideal as a first yacht for family cruising or twilight racing, the Cole 23 is also easily managed single handed or by a novice couple.

This vessel is a good example of the design, featuring the innovative 'pop-top' companionway that provides additional headroom in the saloon, and a fixed keel for enhanced stability and upwind performance. It's also well equipped for both cruising and racing, with a 6HP Lister diesel engine, NEW 2023 prop shaft, 4HP four-stroke auxiliary outboard, NEW 2023 plough anchor with stainless steel chain and warp, and a boom bag with lazy jacks.

Inside, the cabin is light and airy, offering comfortable accommodation for two. Well set up for overnight stays, it comes complete with a portable gas stove, porta-loo toilet, and ample storage. Outside, the spacious cockpit provides plenty of room for the crew, or a great place to relax in a peaceful anchorage. Sail handling is simple, with the mainsail in a boom bag with lazy jacks, and a hanked on headsail stowed in its bag ready for quick deployment on the foredeck. The vessel is light and responsive on the helm, and quite simply a joy to sail.

Well presented throughout, this vessel is the perfect entry into sailing.
