Broker's Comments

This Drascombe Long Boat is in very good condition for her age. Built by Honnor Marine in Totnes, she must be one of the last from this builder before McNulty and Churchouse took over production (and Honnor Marine resurfaced to build the 'Original Devon' range - it's a long story!).
She has good sails, a good motor, and a good galvinised break-back trailer. The Drascombe attributes need no elaboration from me - I have owned three of these beautiful classic dayboats and, by the way, Drascombe Long Boats have crossed both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, although I personally would prefer something with a cabin, and perhaps wings!
These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
