Remarks:
Built by Salterns Boatbuilders Ltd in 2004, the Tela is a beautifully balanced gaff-rigged dayboat inspired by the traditional Welsh “Seeker” pilot cutters. Reproduced since 1990 with a robust GRP hull, varnished spars, and elegant unvarnished teak trim, it combines classic looks with modern practicality that is easily sailed single-handed and spacious enough to accommodate 3 or 4 people.
A galvanised centreboard is operated by a drum winch system incorporated in the mast tabernacle and the gaff rig delivers lively, confident handling. The light, trailerable design makes it ideal for effortless river and estuary cruising—whether enjoyed solo or shared with friends.
This Tela, complete with trailer, has a number of bespoke features and improvements including a larger mainsail and Torqeedo engine making for ideal Broads sailing.
