Lady Cindy is a classic 5 berth, full keel, ocean going sailboat, Nic 32s can be found all over the world, having sailed there from the UK, many have circumnavigated the globe. The current owner has lived onboard for 3 years, and solo sailed her from the UK to Italy.

More information about the boat and it’s design can be found on the Nicholson 32 Association web site.

Lady Cindy has been well cared for all her life and has been modernised by her current owner with the latest electronics and navigation aids, LED lighting, solar and wind charging, double berth etc.
