Broker's Comments
Great little pocket cruiser with a wing keel. This Beneateau 285 appears to be in nice tidy condition currently in her winter layup state with her boom cover on. She was coppercoated in 2018. She offers quite a lot of accommodation for a 28ft boat and has a lovely sized aft cabin and good sized heads. Good condition headlinings and upholstery.

Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
