Remarks:
Fully restored around 2008 by a previous owner, this elegant, traditional Broads yacht is understood to be beautifully presented throughout. Very spacious inside with a bright and airy galley thanks to the sliding hatch above and also a separate heads compartment. She makes for very comfortable family cruising either for a day or the whole weekend. Purchased by the current owner in 2019, she is now regretfully offered for sale due to ill health and excessive travelling distances.
PLEASE NOTE: The photos of her on the water are from 2019 and the ones of her sailing are from several years ago. All others of her ashore are from 2023
