Broker Remarks
Callisto 385 for sale. A well conceived and engineered, round-bilged, long-keeled steel-hulled bluewater yacht from the board of Bill Dixon and the renowned steelwork of Croft Marine. Perfect for a couple to circumnavigate or extensively cruise in comfort and safety, a 'go anywhere' heavy displacement cruiser. Standing and Running rigging are original (as are most of the sails) so will probably need replacing before any long distance excursions. A cockpit enclosure was added in 2011. AQUAMARINE recieved copper coat to her hull in 2013 after shot blasting, so it will be a while before any antifoul is needed. Her anodes were replaced this year. AQUAMARINE has been under the same ownership since new and was cruised in the Solent and the West Country.
