Northshore 38
'Countessa' is a very well presented Northshore 38. Having spent majority of her life in Pittwater with only two fastidious owners since her launch in 1987.A pleasure to sail, she is easily handled by a couple and the model has been a proven club racer both inshore and blue water.
Rigging and sail wardrobe were replaced in 2024 along with the addition of a Raymarine autopilot.
The 28hp Volvo Penta engine had also been replaced back in 2008.
Below deck is beautifully presented in its original form with a comfortable double berth forward, a quarter berth aft, and enough berths to sleep seven. There is a fully functional galley to port with an LPG stove, oven, large fridge and a dedicated nav table (often no longer seen in modern boats).
