For over 230 years, Camper & Nicholson has managed the design and build of the world's most acclaimed yachts. No-one will argue the sea-going credentials and elegant performance of what has become a contemporary classic. "Wandering Star" is in commission, but could possibly best be described as being the subject of an on-going modernisation / re-fit. Many of the systems have been renewed in recent years - for example, the engine, the yacht's electrics and the electronics are all current generation technology. A new owner could undertake some general pre-season servicing work and enjoy sailing the rest of the season out with her, and then set about a satisfying winter schedule to include - re-painting the decks, polish the topsides and re-varnish the woodwork (if you only did those 3 things, "Wandering Star" would really look like the thoroughbred she is). There is some fairing work on the foredeck required where the pulpit mounting has been re-mounted with epoxy. Accommodation on "Wandering Star" comprises of a two-berth forecabin and midships is the heads area with sink to starboard and heads compartment to port. Aft to port is the galley area with sink (with access to the engine below), there is room for a gimballed cooker but the current owner uses a portable ring. There is a small solid-fuel burner to starboard in the saloon. Aft to starboard is the navigation area. Three further berths are available in the saloon; there is standing headroom throughout the saloon area. The saloon upholstery looks to have been replaced within the last 10 years, and looks to be in reasonably good order - and the interior is clean, if somewhat dated - and could benefit from some re-varnishing and general finishing off.
