This 32′ Wooden Deck Saloon Yacht is a Bermudan Sloop designed by Illingworth and Primose. Constructed from African Mahogany under Cascova sheathing for a near maintenance free hull. A £34,000 refit completed and she is now ready to sail away. Kari II is a Bermudan Sloop that sleeps 6 and has interior and exterior helm positions. She was built for sailing off the West coast of Scotland. Powered by a Perkins 48hp engine that was re-built in 2008 with only 74 hours running since the work was completed. The standing and running rigging were replaced in 2012. Currently ashore awaiting her next adventure. The owner tells us he has every receipt since 1968.
Kari II is a Wooden Deck Saloon Yacht that was commissioned by the owners father. Angus Primrose was a friend of the family and described the craftsmanship of the sloop to be of a very high standard, adding that ‘many shipyards down south would be put to shame if they had a look at Kari II.’ The survey in 2005 supported this assessment when very little work was found to be needed , despite her age.
She was laid up from 1980 to 1995, she was passed down the family and we have enjoyed her from 1997 as a family boat until 2005 when a complete refit commenced. Re- launched in 2011 she has not been used this season due to the owners injury but she is ready for immediate use.
With children now grown up and a growing collection of classic cars there has sadly been less use of Kari II. It is with some sadness that we must let her go to a new family who will have the immense fun we have had with her over the years.
With excellent protection from the elements provided in a light and spacious main cabin where one can helm from, with dual engine controls, Kari II is perfect for the UK climate giving shelter from our weather and enabling year round sailing.
