£39,500

31' 9".

at £39,500 is for sale only as the owner is now planning to buy a smaller motorboat. The photos here represent a very fastidious owner's idea of "end of season condition". This really is a very well looked after yacht.

£39,000

35' 3".

that shares much of Nautor Swan's build quality. A seriously seaworthy fast cruiser with deep lead keel, and a good double aft cabin under the cockpit. Just brought ashore in Cornwall.

British Hunter Channel 31

£37,500, 30' 9".

at a reduced price of £37,500 is a David Thomas design that offers a remarkable combination of easy handling with good performance and the ability to dry out on her twin keels. Hunter always referred to these boats as "twin fin" rather than "bilge keel" to emphasise their performance. She is one of the few boats of this size to achieve a RCD Category 'A' rating even for the twin keeled version. She is very well equipped with electric windlass, chartplotter and digital radar, cabin heating and very good sails. Afloat in Devon.


Westerly Seahawk 35

£37,000, 34' 7", bilge keels.

The owners have now bought a larger yacht, hence the recent price reduction - she offers really good value. Ashore in Hampshire.

Moody 31 Mk I

is one of the most popular of the smaller Moodys, with excellent accommodation including a good-sized aft double cabin. In the present much loved ownership for 14 years, she is for sale now only because of a bereavement.

Contessa 32

£28,000, 32' 0", fin and skeg.

- a classic cruiser-racer. This 1979 example has been in the same ownership for 30 years, has been re-engined, and has some nice additions such as a removable Neptune windvane self-steering gear, and telescopic aluminium beaching legs that can stow below. Afloat in Plymouth.

£47,500

Beneteau First 285

£19,750, 28' 9".

Westerly 33

£21,500, 33' 3".

at £21,500 is a well maintained example of these solid, powerful cruising yachts.

Hunter Legend 356

£59,500, 35' 6".

She has since been laid up in a large shed, fully winterised and protected awaiting her next owner to continue the adventure. the design was intended as a long distance blue water cruising boat, spacious, capable and easy to handle. She has very shallow draft and a centreplate allowing her to access inshore areas usually off limits to a yacht of this length. 8 berths in a stunning interior. Fully equipped with all the necessary systems for long distance sailing.

Her interior was designed by her first owner, Robert Cowan Robertson, who was an artist in the Glasgow area and created a spectacular interior design that has survived the passage of time and is nearly all original today. Her saloon joinery has been carefully restored to keep all the original panelling and features and needed only minimal repairs. Her saloon is a completely unique work of art. The yacht was totally rebuilt between 2009 and 2017 with 80% new planking and frames, new deck and all new systems. The restoration was sympathetic to the original design and has resulted in a very special and unique vessel that is in superb condition.

Yachts for sale

Testimonials

Dear Geraint and Rupert, Thank you for effecting the sale of Free Spirit so professionally and smoothly. As you know it was a difficult decision for us to make but having done so, I thank you for making it appear and feel so straightforward. Best regards
Rupert and Geraint at Port Solent did an outstanding job securing a sale that went very smoothly. The attention to detail on the documentation and paperwork from the outset ensured that once a buyer had been found, the transaction was able to progress swiftly to a conclusion. This is in stark contrast to my purchase with a different broker where the paperwork and admin were clearly an afterthought despite this being key to any transaction. I would definitely use Ancasta again for a sale or purchase.
My husband and I are the new owners of a Jeanneau 53 that was listed by Ancasta Barcelona. Starting in April 2025, we plan to sail 7 months out of the year in The Mediterranean and work 5 months here in The Netherlands. A hybrid sabbatical for a few years so to say.The boat was owned by Australians who we never met. Not something we’re used to here in The Netherlands. When we put our Dehler 39SQ up for sale last September, we met the interested parties during viewings (at their request) and we took them for short trial sails. We then spend half a day with the buyers when we handed over the boat.In the absence of that personal interaction, Josiane Sader handled all our questions in a swift manner, chasing and securing a quick turn around by the seller in Australia or the shipyard at some point. Her replies were always very professional and explanatory so that nothing got lost in translation in this three-way, remote selling/buying reality. Daily practice for you I’m sure, but a once in a lifetime experience for us most likely (we don’t expect to sell the boat in a few years while living on the other side of the world:).We put our own broker, on copy during the process, especially during the contract phase. Not once did Josiane give us the feeling that we were over-asking or being difficult. Her patient demeanor really made this a smooth process.I also want to take the opportunity to let you know that if it wasn't for Kostas Saltouridis, we would not have bought the boat at all. In my profession I know that good and genuine customer service can make a difference and Kostas definitely over-delivered.With a seller in Australia, we as buyers in The Netherlands and a broker in Barcelona, we started to doubt after the survey if buying that particular vessel was the smart thing to do. With no one on the ground in Greece we felt uncomfortable to try and find the right people remotely to work through the essential jobs that came out of the survey.Kostas noticed that however and stepped in. He offered to use his own expertise and local network of specialists to work through the most important repairs. After consultation with the seller we agreed to a plan and a timeline. By checking in with me daily and by sending through pictures and video's, he kept us informed on the progress. Last week I hopped over to Greece to go over all the jobs done by Kostas and his team. I had no comments so we made the last payment the day I got back.The seller in Australia isn't able to handover the boat to us so Kostas also took the time to explain all the electronics/equipment to me in detail which I video recorded for later "direction for use" references.We are waiting on some final paperwork after which we hope to launch the boat early August ready for new sailing adventures starting next year. Something my husband and I have been looking forward too for a long time. Ancasta has played an instrumental role in making that happen so a big thank you to your team in Barcelona!Best regards,
I recently sold my sailing yacht via Kostas and Josiane. The service I received from them while selling my boat was truly exceptional. From the initial stages all the way through to completion, they made the entire process incredibly simple and hassle-free. Their communication was consistently clear, timely, and considerate, and they both exceeded my expectations by going above and beyond to assist me. Their dedication and commitment made the experience smooth and I can't commend them enough. All too often good service is taken for granted. I hope this note demonstrates that's not always the case! Regards,
We were looking for our next boat and had decided on a three-cabin flybridge. Ancasta Chichester was advertising a 1999 Princess 460 which looked like it could fit the bill, so we made an appointment to view. A long drive from our home in Essex to Chichester Marina to view the boat proved very fruitful, and after a fault-free sea trial and positive survey, we are now the proud owners of that vessel! From the first contact, Sam and Chris at Ancasta Chichester proved themselves to be the ideal intermediaries - well informed, responsive, flexible and friendly. We felt very welcome and supported at all stages of this process, our questions and concerns were addressed quickly, and we feel confident that we have secured a fair deal on an excellent boat. If you’re an owner thinking of selling, or a buyer considering a used boat, I’d be happy to recommend this Ancasta team.
We bought our boat from Ancasta Dartmouth and thank Nick Bishop for his help and patience during the process of arranging surveys and seatrials. Nick kept us regularly updated, liaising with the vendors whom we thank also.The offices and marina itself are a pleasure to visit.
We have recently purchased Dentino II from Sam Peters.  We initially contacted him through the website asking for more details, photos and videos about the boat. Sam was obliging and pleasant to deal with from the start.  There was nothing that seemed too much effort and he always replied to my messages and phone calls, even on weekends and after hours.  The offer did not go to plan but with Sam’s help and smart negotiation, we were able to put another offer forward.  The offer was accepted and we are now proud owners of the boat.  I will be seeing Sam next week to pick up the keys and paperwork before the boat is brought through to Christchurch. I feel in the current times we live in people are always quick to complain, but we feel that this is one situation that praise needs to be given to Sam. Hope you all have a great safe summer in Falmouth. Kind regards
Great service from Geraint and the rest of the team when selling our yacht. This was a long process requiring patience and diligence, but the whole team pulled together to push the sale though and no stone was left unturned when it came to sorting out unexpected issues.So many thanks for all your hard work - much appreciated.
We found Ancasta, Leo, Rupert and the team at Port Solent office, incredibly helpful, pleasant and knowledgeable. This was our first boat and we uncertain about the process, with their help it was simple, any questions we had, and we had a lot, were answered quickly.Collection of the boat was made simple, all paperwork was provided and importantly, explained to us, the boat was inspected, Leo’s knowledge of the operation and explanations of this boat were helpful and for myself a must.The bottle of champagne he brought for us was so appreciated, this together with the assurance that we could still contact Ancasta for any help / advice after we sailed was away, again very reassuring.With our thanks to Ancasta.
Excellent team effort. Lots of good advice and guidance through the sale process
Hi Veronika and TeamThank you for a fantastic day on Friday. Everything was perfect and ran like clockwork! We’re delighted with the boat and very pleased we chose the GT41 - it’s going to be perfect for us. We were also very touched by the gifts - a really kind gesture!The trip down to Plymouth went very smoothly and was a real experience, at about 20-24 knots most of the way, and we’re now safely moored in Plymouth for the year. Tim Ball was brilliant.Thank you all for helping us through the purchase process from start to finish - we’re really pleased we bought our new boat from Ancasta.All the best
After several months of looking and two failed surveys, I have just completed the purchase of my first boat, a Jeanneau Merry Fisher 795. As a newcomer to boating I have to admit my first impression of boat brokers was pretty poor (compared to other industries I deal with) - descriptions were definitely on the optimistic side, boats were untidy, dirty and generally poorly presented. No excuses, just very poor sales and I would be careful who to list my boat with in the future. Then I came across Ancasta (Leo Walters) who shone bright like a beacon. The description of the boat was accurate, minor faults highlighted and extra pictures provided on request. Communications with Ancasta have been excellent, the boat was very well presented for inspection and after sales Ancasta remained interested to ensure my experience was positive. I wouldn't hesitate going to Ancasta for another purchase and if you are thinking of selling a boat, consider using Ancasta, you will get better service and value for money than many other brokers out there. And as a buying customer I would feel confident buying through them so you would be more likely to sell to me!

Breaking crime updates and news from the courts

Fourteen boat owners have been fined £18,763 after a crackdown on the River Thames . Enforcement officers discovered an unexpectedly high number of unregistered boats after a series of spot checks at Penton Hook Marina in Chertsey last December.

Around a quarter of all the boats (125) in the marina that day had not been registered with the Environment Agency. This week owners who had still failed to register their boats, despite being given "ample warning", had their cases heard in court .

Staines Magistrates' Court heard on Tuesday, October 22, that 14 owners had skipped paying the annual registration fee, which is determined by the length and width of the boat. Some were even found to have skipped their annual registration payments twice.

Colin Chiverton, environment manager at the Environment Agency said: "This was a great day for the majority of Thames boat owners who register their vessel with us every year. Just like us, they’re fed up with seeing this unlawful behaviour take place on the river every year. We’re pleased with this outcome, and it sends a clear warning to all unregistered boat owners – it’s just not worth the risk."

The highest fine issued by magistrates was to Drystan Brod, 50, of Birley Street, Battersea, he was convicted in his absence, and was ordered to pay £2,300 including costs (£275), fines (£60 no separate penalty), compensation (£1,724) and a victim surcharge (£88).

Two of the 14 boat owners, Duncan Hayward, 40, and Tony Davies, 70, were found guilty of having two boats which were unregistered with the Environment Agency. Both were ordered to pay hefty fees.

Hayward, of Hill Rise, Richmond, was convicted in his absence of two offences and ordered to pay compensation of £1,065.15, plus an additional £23.20, he must also pay £275 in costs, £24 victim surcharge and £60 no separate penalty fine. Tony Davies, of St Anne's Road, Chertsey, admitted the charges in court and was ordered to pay compensation totalling £1,810.77 and £250 costs.

The Environment Agency has changed its approach to non-registration on the Thames . This new method of enforcement gives boat owners ample opportunity to register their boat, however, if they fail to do so, a summons will be issued, and this will not stop court proceedings, even if the boat owner subsequently pays their registration fee.

Mr Chiverton added: "At the end of next month, we have another day in court with a further 14 owners facing the music. So, if you have an unregistered boat on the Thames, you should know that our enforcement teams are still out in October, patrolling the river and checking for valid registrations."

Registering your boat on the River Thames

To use both powered and non-powered craft (including paddleboards) on the non-tidal River Thames , boat owners must register their boats annually with the Environment Agency.

Man dies after migrant boat deflates in English Channel

sailing yacht buy uk

A man has died after a boat carrying migrants deflated in the English Channel on Sunday morning, French authorities said.

The man, who was Indian and aged about 40, was in a boat which left from the town of Tardinghen in northern France at 5.30am, the prefecture of Pas-de-Calais said.

The boat quickly deflated and the people on board swam back to the beach, the authorities added.

Emergency services tried to help the man, but he died at the scene.

The authorities said several attempts were stopped by police and gendarmes on Sunday morning, including in Equihen-Plage, Calais and Sangatte.

It comes as it was revealed more people have arrived in the UK this year after crossing the English Channel in small boats than over the whole of 2023, according to Government figures.

Some 29,578 migrants have made the journey since January, up on last year’s annual total of 29,437.

This is 12% higher than the 26,501 recorded this time last year but 22% lower than the 38,129 people making the journey at this stage in 2022.

Some 424 people in seven boats arrived on Friday, according to provisional Home Office data.

The French coastguard said 35 people were rescued from a boat in the Channel and taken to Calais on Friday after screams were heard on the vessel, following the rescue of another 76 migrants on Thursday when they got into difficulty while attempting the journey.

On Wednesday, three people died and dozens of others were rescued when a boat sank while trying to reach the UK, and a baby died in another similar incident last week.
