Broker's Comments

If your dream is to explore the creeks and swatchways, drop your hook where the curlews wade, stoke up the old briar pipe as the evening ebb gurgles away over the rapidly drying mud banks, then this boat is definitely one for you. Sorry, I meant definitely NOT one for you!!
She is a thoroughbred racing machine, no compromise. Capable of outrunning many motor boats she is designed and built for single handed transatlantic racing, even a blast around the local club circuit might be beneath her dignity, but you'll get a few admiring glances and several trophies in the process once you've learned how to drive her.
In essence a brand new yacht, her only sailing time to date could be classed as sea trials for rigging and development purposes. She was built locally of the best materials available and has only been sailed 6 times. She is a very specialised boat, looking for a very special owner.
