Description

Asredua is a distinctive classic motorsailer from the board of Arthur Robb that has stood the test of time well. This attractive craft is only in her second ownership and was previously cruised to the Med and USA. Latterly she has only been lightly used and is only for sale due to the owner's change of plans. A spacious and comfortable cruising yacht, well worth a look.
