The 26.52 metre Palmer Johnson sailing yacht Aria has been listed for sale by Karen Kelly Shea at Luke Brown Yachts.
Built in aluminium by US yard Palmer Johnson, she was delivered in 1975 as a cruising cutter and has been maintained in peak condition since. Accommodation is for six guests in three cabins comprising a master suite and two twins, all with en suite shower facilities.
She has a large, covered cockpit which is excellent for entertaining guests and dining; the cockpit is just behind the helm which also has a new fridge installed.
Aria is easily handled by two persons and is well equipped and designed to be truly a push-button sailing yacht. Her boomless main sails and head sail unfurl effortlessly and with good speed. Under power, a 350hp Volvo Penta diesel engine – new in 2002 – enables a comfortable cruising speed of 8 knots.
Lying in Malaysia, Aria is asking $1,600,000.
