Introduction.

Windy Scandinavia has long been renowned for producing yachts of exceptional quality and seakeeping ability, and the Windy 46 Chinook is no exception.

Evolving from the Windy 44 and 45 Chinook, the 46 introduced several key improvements, including an extended sunroof, panoramic saloon and guest cabin windows and an extended bathing platform.

Her versatile three-cabin, two-bathroom layout is designed with both comfort and practicality in mind. The forward owner's suite features a generous island berth, while the guest accommodation comprises one double cabin and one twin.

KNEAD IThas had just one experienced and meticulous owner from new, who has enjoyed cruising the yacht primarily in North Wales.

This highly capable example is fitted with twin Volvo D6-400 engines -- widely regarded as the ultimate driver's configuration for the 46. Compared to IPS alternatives, these shaft drives allow the hull's full performance to be realised, offering greater trim flexibility. The engines are paired with Humphree interceptors with automatic trim, list, and coordinated turn functions, as well as joystick docking for ease of maneuvering.

The outdrives also make KNEAD IT an ideal choice for owners operating in tidal waters, as the drives can be lifted so the yacht can take the bottom.

The specification is further enhanced with an Onan 4kW generator and an extensive suite of navigation electronics. Highlights include twin chart plotters with electrically adjustable mounting angles, autopilot, AIS, and radar.

The Seller has recently replaced the aft canvas and the sunroof material.
