Salar 40
Strongly built ocean cruiser with an enviable reputation. Purchased by us in 1991 in Germany. Arrived in Australia on her own bottom in 1995. Since then she has benefited from consistent annual maintenance and regular sailing on and around the D'Entrecasteaux Channel. A comfortable and safe family boat which is now looking for a new and more sprightly owner.
