Broker's Comments
There is simply not enough room here to do her justice but here goes...
How about her being allocated Sail #32, indicating she may well be the FIRST Mk2 Falmouth Gypsy built...or the fact she was left ashore for 14 years before being fully restored and rebuilt by Lowestoft Yacht Services to a superior finish than she had when new...and then there's the boat herself.
Look at the images and then ask yourself if you have ever seen a better Gypsy and then look at the price.
Viewing is a pleasure, come and join me aboard and see for yourself.
