Broker's Comments

These boat details are subject to contract.
This is a beautiful and much loved Classic Bermudan Sloop that has been in the current ownership for 20 years, Previously owned by was built in 1974 by McGruers of Clynder Scotland, and was extensively cruised by Mr & Mrs Raynes to northern Europe, the Baltic, Russia, St Petersburg, and Iceland. The current owner told me that he purchased this delightful vessel in 1997 and stripped the inside out as she was originally fitted out for deep sea and long distance sailing. He and his wife have enjoyed 20 years of sailing her, mostly to the Channel Islands, the French coast and Holland, we now sail the East Coast of the UK. They are selling because they are in their 80’s now.
