After a fantastic ten years of joint ownership, we have reluctantly decided that it is time to sell our beloved Contessa 32 Peak Flow.
The Contessa 32 is an enormously respected very safe and seaworthy cruiser/racer, and came to fame when an early example, Assent, was the only vessel of its category to finish the 1979 Fastnet race.
