1997 Bluewater 47

The Bluewater 476 is a respected British-designed bluewater cruising yacht, valued for its solid construction, offshore capability, and classic Camper & Nicholson heritage. It sits in the 47-foot class and is often chosen by sailors planning extended passagemaking. Built to extremely high standards with time, care and attention taken with every detail; the use of East African Cherrywood throughout exudes quality. Original drawings (Ronald J Holland) available. On the water in Plymouth. Viewings are available 6 days a week by appointment only. Please contact the office for further information.
