Description
We are delighted to present this Fisher 34 to the market, in the current ownership since 1999, 'Kingfisher of Forton' is a lovely example of this ever popular motor sailer.
The boat is in its third ownership, and she was the prototype Fisher 34 designed by Wyatt and Freeman at the request of a previous owner of a Fisher 30 to give more space and a larger wheelhouse. She was built by Fairways Marine and launched in 1977.
Notable upgrades in her current ownership include Eberspacher diesel heating, a Mainsail (2013), Genoa (New 2022), Mizzen (2016), a Side Power SP75T bow thruster, an AIS Transponder Digital Yacht AIT1500 with NMEA Server, a Calorifier with mains immersion heater for hot water and much more.
Berth at Portland Marina is available to be continued by the new owner.
