Description
The Corvette 32 offers fantastic accommodation and well-proven sea-keeping qualities far in excess of their size. Their safe, wide decks and low freeboard allow for easy access and shorthanded cruising, whilst also making them well suited to exploring rivers where locks can be challenging for many seagoing boats. 'Steffi'L' has been well maintained and benefits from new Perkins Sabre 225TI engines in 2000, upgraded Mastervolt shorepower system, and a recent electric windlass and Raymarine Hybrid Touch chart plotter. The underwater hull was Coppercoated in 2020.
Viewing by appointment only via our Essex office (01621) 785600.

Accommodation
The Corvette 32 layout has four comfortable berths in two well-appointed cabins, the saloon offers two more berths if required, and it has good standing headroom throughout.
OWNERS AFT CABIN   -   The aft cabin is unusually spacious for a boat of this size, with a large corner double island berth, beneath berth stowage area, dressing table, wardrobe, cupboards, drawers, and shelves providing plenty of storage for longer trips or liveaboard cruising. Good natural light and ventilation is provided by the large portlight style windows, whilst the ensuite adds privacy when cruising with company.
ENSUITE   -   Fitted with a Jabsco electric marine toilet, wash basin, cupboard, mirror, and portlight.
SALOON   -   The saloon is laid out to maximise practicality and ease of use, with a large L-shaped settee and table which can convert to a double berth if required to port, aft of the well-appointed helm steering position. To starboard, the linear galley is equipped with a SMEV four burner gas hob and sink, separate SMEV oven with grill, 12v fridge, and ample storage is provided in various cupboards, lockers, and drawers. A clear passageway fore and aft combined with the starboard sliding door provide quick and easy access, and excellent natural light and ventilation is provided by the all-round windows.
FORWARD CABIN   -   Laid out in an unusual but highly practical layout with single berths to port and starboard, each with storage areas, window, and reading light, with a central heads compartment between them. This layout allows for easy access to the heads compartment during the day, whilst extra privacy could easily be provided for each of the berths with a curtain if required.
HEADS   -   Fitted with a Jabsco electric marine toilet, wash basin, shower, mirror, and hatch.
GENERAL EQUIPMENT   -   Hot and cold pressurised water supply throughout via a calorifier with immersion coil. Tan leatherette saloon upholstery with beige carpets and cream curtains. Eberspacher diesel-fired warm air central heating system.
EXTERIOR   -   The aft deck and flybridge offer plenty of space for alfresco entertaining and dining, whilst the wide, level side decks make access fore and aft very safe and easily managed.
