Welcome to a world of safe adventure
and practical luxury.
|
Only
on a Trader are these apparently contradictory qualities reconciled.
Confident at sea and relaxed at
rest, the Trader is the ultimate cruising machine. |
|
| Comfortable
performance . . . |
| A Trader semi-displacement hull
is unmistakable. The distinctive flared bow ensures a soft and comfortable
ride, even in heavy seas, without any ‘slamming’. As the trim angle remains
constant across the speed range, the Trader remains efficient at
whatever speed the prevailing sea conditions will allow. Lastly, the
substantial displacement means ease of handling at manoeuvring speeds. |

Confidence
to go to sea . . . |

Wide, flat side decks laid with
non-slip teak with sensible handrails give security to you and
your family. On board a Trader, even children can move around
safely. The flybridge helm position gives a commanding
view for ease of handling in tight marinas or anchorages
while your deck crew will appreciate the oversize
stainless steel deck gear. |

The social focus of any Trader,
the full beam aft deck can be shaded from the sun, or closed
off from the rain by a variety of permanent and removable
canopies. With built-in or free-standing furniture you can
tailor the area to suit your family's cruising style. With
easy access to the saloon, flybridge and bathing platform,
the aft deck is the ideal place to relax at the heart of the
action at anchor or in the marina. |

|
|
|
| Relax,
in peace . . . |
|
Because we understand that space
and privacy
are essentials for spending extended periods of
time
aboard, Trader owners’ cabins are situated aft, offering
full beam designs with walk round beds, spacious
en-suite bathrooms
and full-length wardrobes. With the separate guest
accommodation finished to the same
high standards of design,
your Trader can truly be a home from home. |
|
| All the
comforts of home, afloat . . . |
|
Trader galleys are distinctive for
their use of full sized domestic appliances and expansive work surfaces.
Not only can you cater just as you would at home,
but you can also be just as self-sufficient with washing machines,
dishwashers and trash compactors. The aft location is
ideal not only for proximity to the saloon,
but it is also the point
of least inertia, making food preparation at sea both safe
and practical. |

 |
| Value you
can rely on . . . |
|
| When the time comes to sell or trade
in your Trader you will appreciate the care we have taken to protect
your investment. Our policies of only building to order means there is
never any oversupply and with designs evolving over time, you can rest
assured that your Trader will not be made obsolete in a short model cycle. |
| |
| The
quality of Trader construction means that even a twenty year old example can usually be brought
up to an excellent standard with only a little cosmetic work. The
durability and traditional style of the Teak interiors likewise defy the
ravages of age and passing fashions. |
|
| A lifetime
of service . . . |
|
| Average first ownership of a new
Trader is five to eight years, a testament to the thoroughness of
our designs and the satisfaction they give. Well-maintained, Traders
go on to provide as much pleasure to their subsequent owners as well
as proving secure investments and reliable family cruising companions. |
