Remarks:
The Reedling Class is an attractive little Broads yacht with good accommodation for two. This much loved example has been well maintained by recent owners (a retired electrical engineer, and more latterly, his brother) since 2003, with all improvements to rigging, equipment and accommodation being made sympathetically and in keeping with the boat’s character and traditional appearance. Genuine reason for sale, and now sadly requiring some cosmetic improvement and general TLC (including outboard service) due to lack of use, but understood to be in good structural condition having had several planks professionally replaced in 2018. A lovely little river cruiser which will undoubtedly bring much pleasure to her new owners.
MOORING: It’s understood that the vessel’s northern Broads mooring (approximately £1,000pa Apr-Mar, additional £650 for winter storage in shed) could be transferred to the purchaser subject to a pro rata reimbursement to the vendor.
