Boat Details

Description

The Bowman 40 has long been regarded as one of Britain's finest bluewater cruising yachts, and MAUD OF ITCHEN is a particularly special example. Hand-picked by her current owners for the quality of her construction and the confidence she inspires offshore, attributes they felt simply could not be matched. Five years of devoted ownership have left her in great condition, comprehensively updated, freshly serviced, and genuinely ready to go. Her warm teak interior and comfortable two cabin layout make extended passages a pleasure. Three meticulous history binders tell the story of a boat that has been truly loved and it shows in every detail.
