Remarks:
This beautiful Broads River Cruiser Class yacht was the subject of a complete professional rebuild in 2001, and was refitted the following year. She is understood to be very fast in light weather, and her renovation was carried out with racing very much in mind. Sadly for sale due to the purchase of a boat more suited to extended stays on board, her owner states that she attracts a lot of admiration for her looks and is great to sail.
A Honda BF 2.3D outboard is available by separate negotiation.
PLEASE NOTE: The trailer pictured is not included in the sale. The photos of the vessel in the shed were taken whilst her pre-season maintenance was still in progress.
