The Dutch built S&S Sailmaster 22 trailer sailer was exported almost in its entirety to the USA, with a number of them known to be sailing in the Chesapeake Bay area, making this a very rare – possibly unique within the UK – example. The design was offered in two versions, the 4 berth ‘W’ Weekender version (this example) and the 2 berth ‘D’ version, and subsequently led to the development of the Seafarer 23 Kestrel/Kestrel 22. Given her rarity here in the UK, this attractive and robust pocket cruiser is arguably a little bit special, particularly to any Sparkman & Stephens fan as she exhibits many of the traits of this world famous designer.
MOORING: A northern Broads mooring could be available to the purchaser until October 2022. Any further mooring arrangement would be subject to separate agreement with the marina.
