Broker's Comments
Boatshed Wales are pleased to offer for sale this Hunter Impala 28.
A popular choice among the club racing community, the Impala is well known for its competitive performance, and Trissie has certainly earned her share of silverware over the years.
She comes equipped with a large selection of sails—some in good condition and others showing more use. Externally, the boat presents reasonably well and would likely look very smart with a thorough clean.
The interior is somewhat dated and currently a little damp, but with some attention could be made comfortable and inviting again. Alternatively, it could be stripped out for those seeking a more dedicated racing setup.
This could be a great option for anyone looking for an affordable entry into club racing, or for someone happy to undertake a bit of work before potentially using her for cruising.
Currently ashore, she is easy to access for inspection.
All enquiries and viewing requests are welcome.
