Remarks:
This very pretty little open boat is a replica of a classic canoe yawl of the Victorian era. Her owner states that she attracts many admiring comments and that she “Sails like greased lightning – especially down wind with main and mizzen goosewinged”. She is very simple to launch and, whilst she could be adapted to take a small electric outboard, the owner advises that she is a delight to row. She is sadly for sale due to the purchase of another boat.
