reasons. Tailor made halogen lighting in owners cabin and saloon. The shower room with oilskin locker is separated from the toilet area. On starboard the famous

Particulars
?Kwan Yin? is an excellent example of the Allures 40 and is extremely well equipped: Allures yachts are semi-custom built boats, and the owner put a lot of effort and
experience into defining her lay out and equipment. The result is a boat that makes sense in every respect. Due to her solar panel, wind generator, large water and
fuel tanks and hull isolation, Kwan Yin is an autonomous blue water yacht that can be handled by a shorthanded crew. The sailing performance of this Allures 40 is
up to the reputation of both the shipyard and the architect; high average day speeds under comfortable motion, even in rough conditions, easy sail handling of a
powerful rig, and a well protected cockpit. A fine ship for both circumnavigation as well as long distance holidays. She can easily beach and dry out. This makes her
an ideal vessel for tidal area?s that you will cross during your journey, or for those living and sailing there! With new anti-fouling and recent technical and engine
services, she is ready to go.
