Ralph Raulin at Camper and Nicholsons tells me he's closed on the sale of the 39.6m motor yacht Trading Places IV with Jason Lozeau at Galati Yacht Sales acting for the buyer.
Trading Places IV is a Westport 130 built in 2008 to a design by naval architect William Garden and formerly named Miss Sydney. She has a warm interior featuring raised panelled joinery in mahogany. Accommodation is for up to 11 guests in five staterooms – a master suite, two double staterooms and two twin cabins along with seven crew members. New Samsung HDTV systems feature throughout, and she has a drop down television on the boat deck.
The large main saloon offers relaxation areas and panoramic views and leads on to a formal dining room with seating for 10 guests. Alfresco dining is available on the aft deck with ample seating and a full wet bar. Twin 2,735hp MTU engines give Trading Places IV a cruising speed of 24 knots and she is fitted with Naiad at anchor stabilisers for comfort in port.
Remarkably, Trading Places IV has sold within two months of coming on the market.
