Broker's Comments
The boat has been viewed and photographed by Steven of Boatshed Falmouth. Register or log in to see more photos of this boat. Its very unusual to find a steel yacht of these diminutive dimensions but believe me, she does exist. She is a very fully rigged yacht with enough sail configurations to keep the keenest "yachtie" happy. She is a well proven cruising yacht with many miles to her credit around northern Europe. As well as this, she would be perfect for single handed sailing on inshore and shallow waters. She sits nice and upright on her triple keels, so, great for drying out on mud berths. With care and a minimum of maintenance, this yacht will outlast any fibreglass or wooden boat.
This boat has recently been shot blasted, repaired and re painted.
