1987 Snowgoose 37 Elite Remarks :
DESCRIPTION
The Prout Snowgoose 37 Elite is a well-respected British-built cruising yacht, known for its reassuring stability, generous space and dependable offshore capability. This 1987 example, commissioned in 1993 and in the same ownership since, has been carefully maintained and thoughtfully upgraded, offering a practical and comfortable platform for extended cruising or relaxed island hopping.
With an LOA of 11.3m (37ft 1in) and a generous 4.95m (16ft 3in) beam, she provides the space and comfort that makes time aboard enjoyable for family and friends. The central saloon is bright and sociable, with excellent seating around a dining table, while the galley is sensibly arranged for extended stays aboard. Accommodation is split between the two hulls, giving privacy and separation from the main living area.
Her modest 1.0m (3ft 3in) draft allows easy access to shallow bays and sheltered anchorages. The Mitsubishi diesel engine was serviced in October 2024, and she benefits from solar panels, a new Quick anchor windlass, and a comprehensive inventory. A 2022 survey is available.
A capable and proven cruising catamaran, ready for her next owner to step aboard and enjoy.

BROKER’S REMARKS
Fritha is a reassuring and practical cruising yacht with the space and stability that make time aboard relaxed and enjoyable. The Snowgoose 37 Elite is well known for safe, steady passagemaking, and her wide beam provides a cockpit and saloon that work particularly well for socialising or extended stays aboard.
The layout offers privacy between the hulls, making her well suited to cruising with family or friends without feeling crowded. Systems are straightforward and proven, and with her engine recently serviced, solar charging in place and a new windlass fitted, she is set up for easy ownership and immediate use.
A solid British-built catamaran with an excellent cruising reputation, ready for the season.
