Description

Say hello to EllaMay, a lovingly cared for 40ft cruiser by Safe Harbour Boats, built in 1991. For anyone seeking a perfect blend of character, manageable size, and cozy cruising life, she delivers.

Her structure is solid: steel plating, flat bottom hull, with 10/6/4mm thickness. The flooring pairs parquet and ply over polystyrene insulation, while the cabin sides are traditional. Ventilation and light come through top-opening windows plus charming portholes; insulation helps ensure comfort in all seasons.

Propulsion is provided by a Kubota Nanni engine. On the heating & hot water front, there’s a Paloma gas boiler along with a solid fuel stove nestled in the saloon.

Electrics are catered for with 12V and 240V circuits, an 800 W pure sine wave inverter, solar power via a 160 W panel, a starter battery and two leisure batteries. That means evening light, charging, small appliances — all manageable without constant reliance on shore power.

Inside, she balances smart use of space with comfort. The galley comes with Formica worktops, a Country Leisure Cooker and Dometic fridge/freezer (3-way), while dining/living space includes a four-seat sofa bed for flexible sleeping arrangements. A double fixed berth, and fold-down elements make the most of the layout. Bathroom facilities include a hip bath with shower over, pull down vanity basin, and cassette toilet.

With a boat safety certificate valid until 2029, and having been blacked in 2021 she is ready for new adventures. She come complete with both a cratch and a rear tonneau cover.
