Remarks:
Built by Herbert Woods for his hire fleet, this sailing cruiser has been in the same ownership for the last 20+ years, during which time she has been wintered ashore and professionally repainted and varnished annually by a well respected Broads boatyard. All repairs have also been carried out professionally as and when required, and it’s understood that she is consequently presented in a good, well maintained condition throughout. She has spacious accommodation for her size, with good headroom, and is an ideal Broads sailing cruiser for a couple or small family. Currently lying ashore.
