2018- Rhea 850 Timonier with Twin Volvo Penta D3 – 220 engines

Introducing a beautiful example of the stunning Rhea 850 Timonier from the Atlantic Coast of France. This well-maintained boat has been annually serviced and looked after. She has just been relaunched after winter work and is in great condition, ready for another season.

Built to handle various weather conditions, the current owner has successfully circumnavigated the UK in her, and she performed excellently. Her pilothouse style ensures a safe and sheltered passage, whether for a short trip out into the Solent or for longer voyages.

The forward cabin features a V-shaped berth that can be converted into a double for added flexibility. There are various lockers, hanging spaces, and cubbies around the cabin, along with an opening porthole. The spacious head contains a toilet, sink, and shower. The U-shaped sofa can also convert into a double berth if needed. For socialising, the convertible, height-adjustable folding table comfortably seats five. Hungry crew members can be catered for with the twin hob & oven, fridge, and sink. Various cupboards, drawers, and shelves make living on board practical.

She comes with an extensive specification and has benefited from several upgrades during her ownership, including solar panels.
