Broker's Comments
The Trident 24 is a solid, easy-to-handle, sea-kindly 4-berth boat that is often admired. The Trident’s seagoing capabilities have been amply demonstrated over the years by the extensive record of offshore voyages.
Over 250 Tridents were produced and as one of the first production boats to be moulded in GRP, Tridents are far more solidly built than many designs that followed.
She would make an ideal family first sailing cruiser and has had the benefit in recent years of a replacement reconditioned Yanmar engine in 2015 and new Mainsail in 2017 in addition to main dealer re-wiring
With little recent use due to the owner retiring from sailing, she is just in need of a good clean and she will make for an ideal first boat or for somebody who wants to explore the East coats and estuaries without breaking the bank
