The Stuart 37 was designed as a powerful, fast cruiser / racer with an excellent turn of speed and comfortable accommodation for up to eight in three cabins. This particular example has had many improvements in her current ownership including updated electronics, solar panels, Webasto heating and lots more. A very nicely presented cruiser, easily handled by a crew of two and in extremely good condition for her age. Viewing by appointment only through Howard Ford Marine Sales.
