Broker Remarks

Persephone II is a modern design with very pleasing lines. Standards of design construction and finish are very high great credit must be given to the designer and builder Lt Cdr Dobson. The modern but not extreme hull form and high ballast ratio promise to give a good sailing performance with excellent stability.
She is intended for day sailing "weekending" and occasional offshore sailing. The hull has a natural wood finish, she was stripped back to wood and re-epoxied and two-part varnished professionally during the winter of 2017/18 (epoxy saturated and varnished), the decks and cockpit are laid with teak are in excellent condition, they coachroof and cockpit were also resprayed professionally during the winter of 2017/18.
So much work was put into the design-build for Persephone II, her quality really does shine, she is stunning!
