Remarks:
Originally built by Alfred Pegg in Wroxham and named after himself, “Peggy” was bought by Applegates at Potter Heigham and proved extremely popular in hire. She subsequently moved to the Herbert Woods Fleet in 1957 and was purchased by the previous owner in 1982.
She was then laid up in shed storage from 1990 undergoing a comprehensive restoration using a combination of traditional and modern techniques which have resulted in a yacht that is authentically 112 years old but has performance and strength similar to that of a modern GRP yacht.
In 2019, when the present boat-builder owner purchased her, she was decommissioned and needed deck fittings, cleats, port lights/windows and rudder refitted before launching in 2019. Today with all re-commissioning works done she gleams and remains in excellent structural condition throughout having been well maintained by her knowledgeable owner.
Peggy offers lively yachting and stable performance and has a RCC handicap of -18p. Regretfully for sale due to her owners’ advancing years and now priced for a quick sale, she really is ready to launch and sail away with the minimum of fuss.
PLEASE NOTE: The pictures of her ashore show her in a winterised state with many draws and panels removed for the purpose of maintaining airflow.
