Remarks:
The Thurne Restricted Class has all the grace and attractive lines of a traditional Broads sailing cruiser, but with the benefit of a low maintenance GRP hull, making her a very desirable little river cruiser. Based on the extremely successful Yare & Bure One Design (YBOD/White Boat), she is ideal for club racing, day sailing or occasional overnight cruising for one or two adults. This example has been very well maintained and is currently lying ashore in a shed being prepared and varnished for the 2014 season. Further photos available soon.
Note: It’s understood that the vessel’s mooring in a very desirable southern Broads location may be available to the purchaser subject to agreement from the mooring owner.
