Broker's Notes

Beautiful blue water cruiser built to the highest standards by the renowned Italian shipyard during its peak quality years.

Its splendid solid teak interiors (in excellent condition) are now virtually impossible to find on modern vessels of any level.

Designed by Doug Peterson, the Franchini 63 is a high-performance sailing yacht that is at the same time stable and safe.

It was conceived and equipped by its sole owner to be ready for a single-handed circumnavigation with a reduced crew.

At the command cockpit, equipped with electric winches, the running rigging is indeed led. The jib furlers are also electric.

The large guest cockpit is completely clear of rigging and protected by its bimini. A detail that makes it interesting even for those who might want to use it professionally. The yacht is fitted with four double cabins plus a crew cabin.

Spacious, elegant and equipped with all comforts, the owner's cabin.

The white lacquered mast requires repainting and the rod rigging needs to be replaced.
