The Bowman 40 is widely regarded as being the go to blue water cruising yacht. With her Scheel keel, well balanced hull and versatile cutter rig, she offers exceptionally sea kindly performance whether crossing oceans or coastal cruising. ‘Mor Ula’ is currently under her second ownership, both of whom have clearly been very experienced and considerate sailors. She presents very well with no teak to the side decks, the owners have made her home from home especially when you head down below. Recent upgrades have included, but certainly not limited to, a recent engine installation with a Beta 50, updated navigation instruments and the standing rigging has just been renewed in readiness for her next ownership. This Bowman 40 is in turn key condition and available for viewings, currently afloat in Royal Clarence Marina, Portsmouth. Please call us for further information.
