MAXI 1000

This Maxi 1000 is an excellent example of these fast cruising yachts from the renowned Swedish builders Nimbus. This Maxi 1000 has gone through a programme of regular upgrade and maintenance with very little use in recent seasons. In the last two years upgrades include but are not limited to new stainless steel standing rigging and most running rigging, new spray hood and metal work, major engine refurbishment including new alternator, sail drive seal replacement and four new batteries.  BOAT NAME: Mistral VIII;
