1993 Etap 35i ‘GALA’ – SOLD

Thursday 13th October 2022

Mark Cameron Yachts are delighted to announce the successful sale of the 1993 Etap 35i ‘GALA’.

Etap Yachts are built in a modern style above and below decks. The modern styling making use of modern materials to create a yacht which is easily handled while offering bright and spacious accommodation below decks. The Etap 35i had a relatively short production run with just 50 examples leaving the factory between 1991 and 1994, just a handful of those making it to the UK. This Unicorn yacht has developed a loyal following having proven to be an ideal short handed cruising yacht with her clever design, responsive performance under sail and a higher quality of finish than normally found in mass production yachts.

A lightly used example of the Etap 35i GALA has been limited to cruising the sea lochs and islands of Scotlands west coast in her current ownership. Reluctantly offered for sale as her owners are forced to ‘swallow the anchor’ because of health problems she is offered with a comprehensive inventory including:

• CopperCoat finish to underwater hull
• New coachroof windows 2021
• New deck hatch Perspex fitted 2021
• Volvo Penta 2003 marine diesel engine with Volvo Penta sail drive
• Sail drive hull diaphragm replaced in 2021
• Flex-O-Fold bronze folding propellor
• Raymarine autopilot
• Garmin charplotter and radar
• Garmin navigation instruments
• Garmin chart plotter at chart table
• Comar AIS receiver
• Icom IC-M505 DSCVHF
• Eno gas galley cooker
• Eberspacher diesel fired heating system
• Standing rigging replaced 2016
• Guardwires replaced 2016
• EPIRB

Lying afloat on her mooring at Ardoran Marine the Etap 35i GALA will be decommissioned and stored ashore in Ardoran for the winter before her new owners set off to explore the Western Isles in 2023. We look forward to seeing this lovely cruising yacht afloat and ready to go cruising in 2023.
