She has been much loved and extensively sailed; a family bereavement leading to her sale now. An incredibly original boat, believed to be in sailing condition; she underwent a major refit - and with some re planking around the Millennium yet maintaining her originality. Cosmetically appealing we consider her a valuable vessel. Not used in the last 2 years however, she would nevertheless need work to ensure she is as sound structurally as she deserves to be.
