Price tags often scare potential buyers away from owning a boat due to the general perception, but cost shouldn’t steal your seafaring dream. On the contrary, £50,000, which wouldn’t bag you a top-of-the-range Honda Civic nowadays, could be your gateway to owning a yacht. Some remarkable models available for less than this amount promise unrivalled adventure, freedom, and fun.
One of these star yachts is the Sea Ray 200 Overnighter, built in 1991 and priced at £8,950. Famed for its impressively practical and good seakeeping attributes, it offers a one-of-a-kind combination of affordability and functionality. With a large vee-shaped double bed, ample space for two, and its relatively limited headroom, it’s the perfect choice for those craving the thrill of ‘camping’ on water. Its design optimises space in the cockpit, making it perfect for sun lounging.
