Red Lantern is a beautifully presented 2012 example that has clearly been well cared for and thoughtfully upgraded. On deck, the cockpit is well protected with a quality dodger and bimini setup, providing excellent shade for summer cruising. A large solar array is mounted atop the bimini, supporting extended time at anchor. The cockpit is a genuinely comfortable and social space, enhanced by custom cockpit cushions throughout and a large varnished cockpit table in excellent condition. Sailing systems are well laid out, with four Harken winches including an electric winch for the in-mast furling mainsail, making sail handling simple and efficient. A bow thruster adds confidence and ease when manoeuvring in tight spaces. Electronics are well covered with Simrad navigation equipment including a chartplotter and multiple instruments. Both the mainsail and headsail have been removed, serviced, and reinstalled within the last year, and all running rigging and deck gear operate smoothly and as they should. Powering the vessel is a reliable 53HP Yanmar diesel engine, recently serviced, delivering confident performance under power for coastal cruising and harbour manoeuvring. Below deck is where this yacht truly stands out. The raised deck saloon design creates an open, airy interior with excellent sightlines and a real sense of space. This is the desirable three-cabin, two-head layout, with generous cabins that feel noticeably more open than many comparable yachts. The saloon table can also convert to an additional berth when required. The galley is well appointed, featuring a large fridge with freezer compartment, making life aboard comfortable for extended cruising or liveaboard use. In terms of systems and upgrades, Red Lantern is impressively equipped. She features a professionally installed lithium battery system comprising two lithium batteries with a combined capacity of approximately 400Ah, supported by a dedicated bow thruster battery. This setup is paired with a powerful 3000W inverter, providing an excellent level of onboard power independence. The vessel has recently been antifouled with PropSpeed applied, and while out of the water also received a saildrive service and full engine service. Overall, Red Lantern is a very well-sorted cruising yacht that would suit a wide range of buyers, from those seeking a comfortable liveaboard, to families wanting an easy and enjoyable weekend cruiser, or anyone looking for a capable, reliable yacht ready to go sailing immediately.
