Description
Presenting 'Arohanui' - a magnificent 40ft Alan Mummery Ketch professionally built in 1975 by Sinclair Melbourne in Lyttelton, crafted by true tradesmen with the finest triple-skin kauri construction, fibreglass sheathed over hull and cabins from new. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully maintained classic New Zealand ketch with genuine character and proven offshore capability.
The yacht features teak decks, a practical centre cockpit layout with a private aft cabin, and comfortable accommodation for seven berths. Power comes from a reliable 72hp Perkins diesel engine, recently fitted with a new shaft and propeller. A generous 568-litre fuel capacity ensures extended blue-water range.
The rig has been thoroughly attended to - masts out, standing rigging checked and replaced as necessary - giving confidence for offshore passages. Sail inventory includes a Furlex roller headsail, main, mizzen staysail, and mizzen. The vessel has been recently antifouled and presents in well-maintained condition.
Owned by the same custodian since 1981, purchased from the original builder's owner, 'Arohanui' represents over four decades of caring stewardship. She sails extremely well and turns heads wherever she goes. A genuine classic in excellent condition - now price reduced for prompt sale. Located in Lyttelton.
