This is a very tidy example of these highly regarded cruising yachts with quality equipment fitted and a comprehensive inventory. The centre cockpit offers excellent protection from the elements and also creates room for a large aft cabin with plenty of headroom. Jarkans are an ideal liveaboard vessel with the ability to enclose 2 cabins leaving lots of room in the saloon for entertaining and dining.
The vessel is powered by a well maintained Volvo 28hp diesel with excellent access from under the cockpit steps and both sides. If twilight racing is on your wish list "The Shack" is a proven successful competitor and will provide lots of enjoyment. Jarkans are also excellent passage makers with some notable voyages to their credit. Best of both worlds!
