Swan 53 sold by Yeoman Yachts:

ENTELECHY

This broker is very familiar with ENTELECHY (ex FETCH & ex GRACE) as I have sold her 3 times in the past, each time to owners who have now created many memorable occasions aboard her.

ENTELECHY has a lot going for her, including a centerboard for shallow water sailing, replaced teak decking, total rebuild of the main engine, hydraulic winches, replaced generator, air conditioning, replaced leather upholstery, replaced electronics, replaced rod standing rigging and a lot more.

Essentially, all you need to do is bring aboard your personal belongings and groceries and cast off.
