'Wishbone' is a fantastic example of this Rob Humphreys designed Contessa yacht that has been in its current ownership since 2007. The current owners have used Wishbone for cruising and racing and have maintained her at great expense.
The boat was antifouled in March 2024 and has a fantastic inventory and is in 'ready to go' condition.
