Tamara is a Contessa 26 constructed by Jeremy Rogers Boatyard. Contessa 26s are legendary boats due to single-hand round-the-world voyages and winning many races such as Round the Island and OSTAR. If you don't know about them, look them up. Tamara was among the first 30 ever produced, but the hull number is unknown. I purchased her in 2021 and have refurbished her from a tired daysailor to a lovely cruiser-racer. I've completed two Scilly's trips and entered local club racing with her. She's given me the confidence to move on to my next big boat.

The Contessa 28 offers an excellent blend of confidence inspiring sailing performance and useful accommodation, offering up to five berths. Less well known than earlier Contessa yachts, the 28 was more modern with an improved interior and moulded headlining, often considered an earlier rival to the Sadler 29. 'Midnight Lady' is a good example of her class fitted with a 2006 Nanni 21hp diesel engine and a recent chart plotter and windlass. She is competitively priced as a recent survey identified that the decks will require attention in the future.
