RIVAL BOWMAN 40

Extremely well thought out boat designed by Chuck Paine. She is very spacious below decks with a double berth and en-suite head compartment in the forepeak. The comfortable saloon has two pull-out pilot berths for passage making and there is excellent stowage throughout, including making use of the space under the cabin sole. There is an excellent galley, the worktops of which cover the engine which has complete all-round access when these are removed. There is a further large heads/shower compartment with a hanging wet locker and another double cabin to the port side aft. She has lovely teak joinery throughout.

Price: £156,000 sterling
