Description

Sailboat Faston is for sale! A sturdy ship, suitable for long sea voyages. Steel hull, 43 feet, Ketch rigged, built in 1978 to the design of Van de Stad, a ship with history. From the logbook, we know that the ship was used as a charter in the Mediterranean and along the English south coast. In the eighties, it sailed to the Canary Islands and the Azores, then to the Caribbean islands and back. Part of that journey was done solo sailing. The Faston is a stable ship and a fast sailor. It draws 220 deep, is heavily rigged, equipped with a safe and spacious center cockpit. The ship is ketch-rigged, making the sails easy to handle. It has a spacious interior with a cozy salon, kitchen, navigation area, six berths, two wet cells, and a robust engine. The salon and cabins have real standing height, making the ship suitable for long stays at sea or in port. In 2023, the Faston underwent a thorough overhaul. Above and below the waterline, the ship received a new paint system. The outdated teak deck was replaced with a wood-epoxy bonded deck, and the ceilings and bulkheads were re-paneled. Because the ship was dry-docked in a shed for this refit, it also provided the opportunity to equip the masts with a completely new stainless steel rigging, including all tensioners, by CS Rigging in Zaandam. Additionally, the wiring in the masts, antennas, windex, halyards, and blocks were renewed. The outdated navigation equipment was replaced with a new Raymarine VHF radio, sea-talk network, plotter, and two multifunctional displays. Finally, the ship was reupholstered. The Faston is now ready for a new life at sea and awaits someone with grand travel plans.
