Broker's comments

This Alustar build Wever 53 from 2001 is a very stable, comfortable cruiser, designed by Piet Behage. Her owner has kept 'Avanta' in a really good condition, with many upgrades during the years. 'Avanta' is complete with a lifting keel, bowthruster, heating, air-conditioning in the owner's cabin, generator, solar panels, watermaker and much more. She is quite spacious inside with a pilot house, two cabins and a lot of storage space. Ready for long trips or even living on board. Please make an appointment to see this wonderful Wever 53 in our sales marina in Katwoude !
