Windy 28 Ghibli, UNDER THE SUN

Broker’s Comments

The Windy 28 Ghibli’s legendary Norwegian build quality and exceptional handling characteristics on the water have made her an ideal choice for many.

The hull is by Hans J Johnsen, and believe me, this hull will stay planted, dry and comfortable when much bigger boats are struggling. The Windy 28 Ghibli has a full-width cockpit (access forward is through the central windscreen section) with twin gas-sprung and bolstered helm/navigators seats forward, a central seating section, and then a huge aft sun pad which sits on top of the powered engine bay hatch.

Below decks, there is a neat galley to port, with a sink, diesel hob (so there is no gas on board – or any need to be on shore power to cook) and preparation surface. Facing the galley is a separate heads compartment with a manual WC and a sink. The forward saloon is a large, wrap-round dinette with a central table that lowers to make a very good-sized double berth as required. There is plenty of light and ventilation, and all surfaces are properly trimmed (as you should expect) with top quality materials to make your time on board as comfortable and relaxed as is possible.

Her machinery space is easy to work in, with plenty of space and easy access to main service items, with a central lazarette space and storage under the side seating for general cruising kit. In short, the Windy 28 Ghibli is highly versatile, sea-sure and fun. Why wouldn’t you?

Owner’s Comments

The Windy has been an incredible boat for my family and friends to come enjoy all year round. She benefits from having a great easy canopy that covers the whole of the cockpit and when the sun shines, she turns into the ultimate day boat. There is plenty of space to lounge and have picnics in bays. The only reason we are selling is that we need a little more space for the ever-growing family.
