Broker's Comments

We were delighted to list this classic 1947 motorsailer which ouses character throughout from the external lines through to the comfortable yet spacious cabin. The current owners have owned the boat for 14 years and in this time have renovated the boat and maintained it to a good standard.

She offers good sailing yet would be equally as comfortable relying on the 50hp engine and cruising under power. Benefiting from a boat safety certificate until 2011 she will be equally at home on the coast or suitable inland waterways.
