Expertly crafted in 1963 at the Bianchi e Cecchi shipyard in Cogoleto, this classic vessel, known as Shuna, stands as a testament to traditional wooden boat building. Originally conceived as a decked gozzo with a Marconi rig, the construction features a triple-layer laminated wood hull. The vessel has undergone meticulous maintenance, highlighted by a 2022 renewal of the solid teak exterior and professional care of the woodwork, preserving its authentic character for the modern sailor.
Measuring 8.18 meters in length with a beam of 2.9 meters, this used boat offers a stable platform on the water, supported by a 2,000 kg keel ballast and an additional 700 kg of internal lead ballast. Below deck, the configuration includes one cabin and one bath, making it an intimate vessel suitable for up to 6 people for daytime outings.
The propulsion is provided by a 27 HP Lister 3-cylinder diesel engine, paired with hydraulic steering. The structural integrity and historical pedigree of this cutter are well-documented, including its original tonnage certificate.
This Bianchi e Cecchi Cutter is currently located in Italy and is offered at 35.000 EUR with VAT paid. It is ideal for collectors or enthusiasts of classic wooden boats who appreciate historical significance combined with recent restorative attention.
