Description

This is a great example of an etap 21i that has been thoughtfully upgraded without any structural changes. The gel coat and hull are in good condition. The interior is clean and dry. There are many extras included and there have been many upgrades including engine (2017) and electronics (2021). The boat has a full battery system that supports interior lighting and also has a shore power connection and outlets. It has been very well loved and looked after.

The Etap 21i is a highly regarded, unsinkable cruising yacht, perfect for coastal sailing, family trips, and easy trailering.
