Romanza 6m   SOLD

I'm selling my 6m Romanza,  I purchased it from earlier this year. Below is the text from the person I bought it off. I'm only selling as I have just moved house. I'm looking for £800. 

​Comes with measurement certificate. Will need collecting from Essex 

 Please contact me at: 

 stevebloss@hotmail.com   

M: 07939561728

 
 It was purchased last year to sail at the 6m nationals at Dartmoor where it finished a respectable 6th. 
The boat needed a lot of work. Prior to the nationals both jib booms were replaced as was the rigging. After the nationals I removed the deck and significantly lightened the hull adding the saved weight to the keel. The boat was sailed on Saturday for the first time since this work was completed and was competitive against another Romanza in the club.
The reason it's surplus to requirements is whilst it was being refurbished I purchased another 6m and I don't need 2.
The Romanza comes with A and B rigs along with a skinny main. All sails are Housemartin and are in good condition. I have only used the A rig and the others look unused. As stated above both jib booms were replaced prior to the nationals with Sailsetc fittings.
There is a brand new RMG sailwinch with self tensioning drum, which only got used for 1 outing and a new Hitec waterproof servo.

Three Six Metre Yachts
For Sale - All Sold


  
I have three 6 mtr yachts for sale. I know very little about them but have had a lot of help from Shaun, who runs this site regarding what they are and what would be a fair price.

I know if I did a lot more research into how complete they are regarding winches, servos etc. I would be able to ask a higher price, but I would rather see them go to a real enthusiast for a fair deal. If you do have any questions feel free to ring me on 07942 754990, I will do my best to answer but please don't ask me to start opening up hulls and looking for numbers and equipment.

I am happy for anyone interested to come and examine them to whatever extent they want. I would prefer to sell them as a job lot and as such I am prepared to sell all 3 as described below for  £550.00   

Buyer views and collects from Leigh on Sea, Southend.
