1993 Contest 40S - ARABELLA | 40' centre cockpit cruising yacht - NOW SOLD

Mark Cameron Yachts are delighted to present the sale of the 1993 Contest 40S ‘SIARA’. At the time of its introduction in the early 1990’s the Contest 40S was a leap forward for the Dutch builders with her more modern hull shape and improved below decks accommodation. Designed to maximise hull speed while being predictable and easy to handle under sail the sleeker profile with finer hull sections went on to become the Contest Yachts style for the following decades. Commissioned by her original owner in 1993 to his own ‘blue water specification’ the boat has several transatlantic crossings under her hull already, having extensively cruised the waters of the Caribbean and Eastern seaboard of America. Professionally maintained and upgraded throughout the first ownership. Sold through our brokerage to her current owners in 2019 the Contest 40S ARABELLA has enjoyed extensive upgrading and re-fitting in recent years. A change of circumstances has resulted in the boat now being offered for sale several years earlier than planned. Her extensive inventory includes highlights such as: Hull blasted to remove antifouling and re-epoxied in 2020 Keel shot blasted and epoxy coated in 2021 Full depth skeg hung rudder – new rudder fitted winter 2012/13 Volvo Penta MD22 marine diesel engine, timing belt replaced 2020 Featherstream bronze, 3 blade propellor (2021) Mastervolt Whisper 3.5kW (2016) – less than 70hours of use Sleipner Side Power SE130 bow thruster (2022) Exturn externally mounted pod stern thruster (2012) Sleipner Side Power intuitive control panel, controlling bow and stern thruster (2022) Rutland 1200 wind generator (2023) Hydrovane self-steering system Raymarine Autopilot system Raymarine ST60 and i70 navigation instruments Raymarine Axiom+ 7” plotter (2020) Icom IC-M421 DSCVHF Raymarine AIS700 class B transceiver with integrated antenna splitter (2020) Starlink Gen3 satellite dish with router Force 10 galley range 230VAC, 700w microwave Eberspacher hydronic heating system (2009) Standing rigging fully replaced in 2015 Extensive sail wardrobe Sprayhood, cockpit tent and bimini all fitted new in 2023 Lying afloat in Largs Yacht Haven the Contest 40S ARABELLA is available for immediate viewing by prior appointment.
