Broker's Comments

The Swift 23 is the big brother of the Swift 18 and shares pretty much all of her agile ability although is a much larger easier boat to move around inside. She is still small enough to trail and take home for the winter or will sit on a mooring quite happily. Below decks this boat is nicely layed out and finished with good use of available space. An excellent first family cruiser in lovely condition. These boat details are subject to contract.
