Remarks : Kelt 8.50 for sale. Combining excellent sailing performance with a spacious, light and well designed interior. A great all rounder for family or single handed cruising. The Kelt 8.5 can be used for day trips, weekending or adventures further afield. Equally at home in the open sea or in shallow water (with the lifting keel shallow water exploration is possible), this vessel was revolutionary in its design.
Remarks : Kelt 8.50 for sale. Combining excellent sailing performance with a spacious, light and well designed interior. A great all rounder for family or single handed cruising. The Kelt 8.5 can be used for day trips, weekending or adventures further afield. Equally at home in the open sea or in shallow water (with the lifting keel shallow water exploration is possible), this vessel was revolutionary in its design. The design allows her to sail beautifully whilst having the luxury and flexibility of a shallow draft when needed and the ability to sit upright when drying out. This Kelt 8.50 has been well cared for and looked after by the current owner. She has a comprehensive navigation and safety equipment together with many updates over the last few years.
