Broker's Comments

An interesting vessel by Millers of Fife which I am told was built as a mail boat for use around the Scottish islands and later served as a pilot boat around Whitby. The present pilot house which is not original was fitted some years ago and was originally from a 1920 55 foot William Osborne.
She appears very sound and has had much work done on her over recent years.
Although the shallow draft enables her to reach inland waters, lochs and rivers I have seen her out, and looking a pretty picture, in hostile weather which she took in her stride.
Perhaps fairly basic down but below she has great potential.
