Broker's Comments

Oozing charm and character, this is a great starter boat or the perfect choice for someone looking for a more traditional boat. The designer, Maurice Griffiths was renowned for his practical designs which appealed to so many. A proper little sailing ship the cockpit feels safe and secure and the wide side decks add to this impression. The accommodation below ia warm and cosy and I can imagine an owner would spend many a happy night anchored in some quiet creek enjoying the peace and tranquility of the boat and its surroundings.
