Since acquiring in 2020 the current owners have used Rothali as a Sydney base where she is berthed in Newport at the RPAYC. The mast was removed and standing rigging replaced. A brand new Yanmar 75hp engine was installed in 2023 to ensure maximum reliability and a new bow - thruster tunnel and unit installed to assist with manoeuvrability. New batteries, new canvas work. All to a tune of well over $100,000.
Rothali represents a great opportunity to purchase one of Beneteau’s most popular cruising boats.
