Remarks:
Understood to have previously been in hire with both Martham Boats as Leander 1 and Chumley & Hawke as Ranger 1, this Broads River Cruiser Class yacht has been in her current private ownership for over 26 years. She comes with a road trailer enabling her new owner to over winter and maintain her at home should they wish to do so. A quick sale is desired.
