Ta Chiao CT 47 Centre Cockpit
All the hard work is already done on this beautiful and extremely rare yacht.
K-Sera 2 is a 14.7m Centre Cockpit, cutter rigged Sloop that has been carefully set up for permanent live aboard and cruising.
And here's all the important stuff up front:
Oversized everything - Large, solid davits - DRY cockpit with wrap around Perspex windscreen and hard top - Near new B&G / Simrad Electronics - Lots of fuel and water capacity - 190cm headroom in some places - Good fridge and freezer - 75hp Yanmar Turbo in good condition - International Registration - Custom lighting throughout - Solar Panels and Big House Batteries.
3.1m RIB with tube covers and a 15hp 4 Stroke Suzuki (< 50 hours) also available (has it's own rego, so needs to be a separate sale).
A full list of all the work we've done is available on request, as is more pics and an explanation of why she's so rare.
