Remarks:

This is a rare opportunity to purchase a privately commissioned Broads yacht based on the eminently popular Thurne Restricted Class. An attractive little sailing cruiser, she combines the traditional lines of a Broads river cruiser (but in miniature!) with the easy maintenance of a modern GRP hull and electric motor. Offering two berths, she’s ideal for those wishing to both day sail and also spend an occasional night on board enjoying the peace and tranquillity of the Norfolk Broads. Purchased by the current (and only second) owner in 2013, she is now regretfully for sale due to lack of time.

MOORING: This vessel’s very desirable northern Broads mooring (with electric hook up) is paid for the 2021 season and can, it’s understood, be transferred to the purchaser.
