Vivacity 24 sailing yacht

Description

Designed by Alan Hill and built by Russel Marine in 1975, the Vivacity 24 is a solidly built twin-keel family cruiser, ideal for harbour and coastal cruising and for taking the ground in sheltered waters. A spacious cockpit and twin cabin interior with 5ft 9in headroom in the saloon and 4-5 berths in total.
This yacht has an 8HP inboard Yanmar diesel engine. In 2014 the engine was removed and rebuild by a Yanmar Agent before re-installing on new engine mounts.
This yacht has a full furling genoa and shortened foot main sail, with control lines running aft to the cockpit for ease of short-handed or solo sailing.
