Broker's Comments

When I first clapped eyes on this yacht (some 8 or 9 years ago) I thought she was an Eventide. Well I wasn’t far wrong – she is a bigger version of the famous Maurice Griffiths designed boat.

She has been in the same ownership for over 30 years, but sadly the owner is looking to downsize..

Marine ply on solid timber frames, she has steel bilge plates which allow her to “take the ground”.

She has some really up to date gear including AIS, and the owner has lovingly added some really rather nice carvings to give her the feel of a real little ship.

Those of you who know these boats will be beating a path to my door!

She is in “laid up mode” at the moment, so some of my photos don’t do her credit. You must come and see for yourself!

These boat details are subject to contract.
