1975 Southern Marine Malahide Trawler

St Julian's

€495,000

CONNDA VENNESSA is truly a unique yacht, built to massive scantlings that are usually found in a vessel twice her size. Her hull is so strong that she can take just about anything the sea can throw at her. Stabilized and with a deep draft, her motion is quite comfortable in any sea state. With a range of over 3000 miles, she is capable of going anywhere in the world.

In 2006/07 her present owners refitted CONNDA VENNESSA totally. The hull and superstructure have been taken back to bare, any rot or damage rectified and repainted. The deck has been relaid and the engine room completely rebuilt. Most of the systems have been either totally overhauled or rebuilt. The interior has been completely re-modled giving her a pleasing and contemporary feel without losing her traditional good looks and atmospheric feel. She has had a further refit 2010, and everything is in good cosmetic and operational condition. Last refit 2013/2014.

It is impossible to overstate the considerable volume and comfortable four -stateroom layout that CONNDA VENNESSA offers. Her 6.8m beam gives the impression of a 90' motor yacht. Couple this spaciousness with her low rpm Kelvin diesel, the comfort and warmth of a wood interior with her massive, overbuilt Iroko hull, and you have a rare and wonderful vessel. Kelvin Diesels are renowned for their reliability. Used by trawler fleets around the World they have an enviable reputation. They are still in production and almost exactly the same model is being manufactured today. CONNDA VENNESSA is an economical yacht to run. In her previous ownership she cruised extensively in the North Atlantic, North Sea, Irish Sea and Mediterranean and in the Red Sea. She is now fully equipped for comfortable Mediterranean cruising.

CONNDA VENNESSA is an exceptional motor yacht that is now being offered in fully turnkey condition and which is perfect either for local cruising or to cross oceans, which she will manage effortlessly. She is super value given her huge construction and the scale of the recently completed refits.

Hull

Mahogany beam ceiling and mahogany teak panelling throughout

In 2006/07 CONNDA VENNESSA was totally refitted, work to the structure included:

Hull completely stripped to bare wood, rotten planks (approximately 3 sqm) replaced, the hull planks were re-fastened and the whole hull was completely recaulked.

The non-operational stabilizer fins were removed and 2 x 2 new bilge keels were added. The hull was faired and painted. The yacht is single plank wood construction and therefore some movement is expected, hence a semi-commercial paint finish was chosen.

Areas of the superstructure, where rot was found or suspected, were replaced with marine plywood and protected with fibreglass and epoxy where required; further work to this was carried out 2010

All windows are replaced, all window frames replaced and varnished. All portholes were chrome plated and fitted with new windows.

A completely new deck was been laid both on main and bridge decks, an area of approximately 120 sq metres. The mizzen was removed in order to create an outdoor living area underneath sun awning. The deck above the bridge was converted into a sun bathing area with a 10 sq metre 3-piece cushion.

In the course of normal maintenance the hull was stripped back to bare wood 2010/11 and has been totally repainted.

During the 2013/14 maintenance period the hull has been completely repainted, among other improvements.
