Remarks:
With her GRP hull and traditional appearance, the Farrington 25 combines ease of maintenance with the beauty and grace for which Broads river cruisers are renowned. This example has been in the same ownership for some 21 years and has been maintained with no expense spared by Colin Buttifant at Swallowtail Boatyard throughout this time. A truly immaculate example!
