Hi,
Anybody interested in a Pionier 9 sailboat. I have no more time, health or money to sail and look after this boat. It's afloat in Southampton, Hampshire, UK.
Btw: The hull is GRP but it's a classic, being the first boat designed to be build in fiber glass. It has a lot of woodwork inside and out anyway.
Get in touch as soon as possible.
Thanks

And still a good sailing boat, fast off the wind, go like a train
 
Like the picture from the mast head. That is the shape that god intended sailing yachts to be is it not?

Does the boat come with the bottle of wine (not that I am able to take up the kind offer..... currently operating a strictly one in one out rule on my small fleet)

Lovely boats. I sailed on one as a teenager and they are a joy to sail. If I didnt already have something very similar I would be very interested.

Nicolette Milnes-Walker in 1971 … took 40 odd days as I remember. First woman to do it solo. Later, as Nicolette Coward, ran a bookshop in Dartmouth which is when I knew her.

1952, 23 footer called Felicity Ann from Canaries to Dominica … this landfall was unplanned.
Nicolette Milnes-Walker, 1971 non-stop from Milford Haven-Newport … came home on the QE2 and was presented with a painting of her boat, Aziz, by RKJ.
