Broker's Comments
The Newbridge Pioneer is a solid well-built family cruiser with 6 berths including an excellent double aft cabin which for a 26' boat makes this a very attractive cruising boat.
The pioneer also has the added the added advantage of being a bilge keels which is great for drying out.
The current owner has had her for 6 years and there is lots of evidence to suggest she has been well maintained and cared for.
